   Hi,

  Can we create store manager specific to perticular category. By that i can assign one category management to one store manager.

Detail description of problem:
  Let us assume i am having 5 categories. Under each category i am having 50 products. 
Its very difficulty for a single store manager to manage all the categories.
Is it possible that to assign each category to one store manager. Then that store manager can track  products, reports and orders of that  category.

Please if anybody knows reply back to me.

Thanks and Regards
M.Sreenath

	Hi, Ths is not supported by ProductCart. The changes needed to support that across all the different screens, reports, searches etc etc would be a very significant project. Many stores run with hundreds of categories and 1000's of products without this being an issue.

	Hi, I've had another thought on this issue - customers can order products across several categories within a single order and there is no way of managing just a part of an order, or rather there is no way of hiding parts of orders. The closest functionality is Drop Shipping, where an email for the products that belong to the assigned drop shipper are sent to the specified email address for the drop shipper. However, I do not recommend this unless they are true drop shippers as it makes life more complex, not simpler.
