Access level

Using AcyMailing Enterprise you can restrict the access of functionalities. (this feature has been implemented since AcyMailing 1.8.0)

Even if you see all kind of groups on this interface, it does not mean all groups are allowed do execute the corresponding action. For example, an action only available via the back-end such as exporting users will only be accessible for users allowed to log-in on your back-end.

If you want to allow a user group to access a Back-end feature, you'll first have to go in the AcyMailing component's options (the "Option" button at the top of the dashboard) then enable the access to the Back-end
