How to create child usergroup?

[mohammed24]

Hi Experts,

Can we create child usergroup to already existing usergroup and assign a user to it? Any idea would be appreciated?

You can assign one usergroup to another one e.g. if you add usergroup1 to usergroup2, the usergroup2 will have all the permissions inherited from usergroup1. You can do it using backoffice or ImpEx.

Using ImpEx:

 INSERT_UPDATE UserGroup;UID[unique=true];groups(uid)[mode=append]
 ;testproductmgrgrp;backofficeproductmanagergroup,employeegroup

Now, testproductmgrgrp will have all permissions inherited from backofficeproductmanagergroup and employeegroup. You can override the permissions for testproductmgrgrp.

Yes but its not working in that way..when i am trying to login its asking which user group i want to login parent or child..... Expected behaviour should be as you mentioned above

Please check if the permissions have been overridden.

This works fine but then I click on user icon it shows parent group name instead of child group...can we change this??

Let me try something. If I find something, I will update here.

Hi Mohammed - please check the response I got from Hybris backoffice development team. As per the response, it has to be custom implemented. The User like icon is actually a Role Chooser which shows the currently selected role.
