Yahoo has recently launched a new Access Manager. Now you have more options for the types of access you grant to others, so you can make sure your developers, order processors, and anyone else working on your store have only the access you want. With the new administrator role, for example, you can provide a user with access to both your Store Control Panel and your Web Hosting Control Panel. Other new roles are more focused to specific sections of your account. A store editor can work only with your site building tools, but won't see your site statistics, while a order processor can only see orders but can't modify store pages or catalog.

More information can be found here: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/smallbusiness/access/access-03.html

I have taken most of the different access levels and placed them on a spreadsheet for easier referencing. Please let me know if you want a copy of the spreadsheet.

This is a nice new feature and I encourage you all to reset your users to the best access levels. Certain people don't need access to store statistics, customer credit card data, etc.

If you have any questions or need help understanding this new feature, please let me know.
