Introduction
Worldline Sips is a secure multi-channel e-commerce payment solution that complies with the PCI DSS standard. It allows you to accept and manage payment transactions by taking into account business rules related to your activity (payment upon shipping, deferred payment, recurring payment, payment in instalments, etc.).
The purpose of this document is to introduce the MEX tool of the Worldline Sips solution.
Who does this document target?
This document is intended for MEX users: administrators of E-commerce websites, webdesigners, IT, finance, etc.
For an overview of the Worldline Sips solution, we recommend you consult the following documentation:
Important understandings
Operating the MEX is based on a few important understandings that define the way you interact with the tool.
Roles
The role determines the tabs you will have access to and defines the actions you will be able to perform.
A user role can be seen as a predefined set of access rights. This operating mode simplifies the user creation process by allowing a set of rights to be assigned to a given account in one single operation.
A user can be assigned several roles from the following:
Role | Description |
---|---|
Sips Office Extranet Gestion | Allows access to 'Sips Office Extranet'. |
Merchant Fraud Admin | Allows access to the 'Fraud tab'. |
Custom Pages | Allows access to the 'Pages customization' tab. |
Merchant User Admin | Allows access to the 'Users' tab. |
Merchant Download | Allows access to the 'Download' tab. |
Merchant Admin | Allows access to the 'Download', 'Users' and 'Sips Office Extranet' tabs. |
Access Points
The access point is your entry point in the hierarchy. It determines the merchant level you will be able to view and manage.
A role assigned to a user account is always associated with an access point: Merchant or webshop.
- Merchant ("CG", Commercial Group): a merchant is a group of webshops. It is a level that allows a user to manage a webshop pool with one single access.
- Webshop ("POS", Point Of Sale): a webshop is the lowest level in the hierarchy. Transactions are processed at the webshop level. It is also at the webshop level that all the functionalities and means of payment are saved. A webshop has a unique ID, called "Merchant ID". Every merchant has at least 1 webshop.
The role confers rights to the associated access point and to all the units under it.
Example:
Lea (red dots) has an administrator role on the merchant, which gives her this very same role on the three webshops without having to assign her the rights on each shop individually. If a fourth webshop is added to the merchant later, Lea can administer this new webshop in the same way, without the need to grant her additional rights.
Paul (purple dots) has an administrator role strictly on webshops 2 and 3. It was necessary to explicitly assign the roles to each of the two webshops.
