How to allow only a vendor user to consume?

Hi,

If you want to just allow the owner of the serial ; you have to let HikaSerial assign the user to the serial.
Otherwise, "anybody" will be able to consume the serial. That's why the plugin "group filter" is there to filter and just allow accounts in specific groups to perform that task.

Hi,

The best is to have all your vendors in the same Joomla group.
Using the "vendor registration" with "automatic creation" can allow you to pick a specific group and will assure you that all yours vendors will have the same (if you need that kind of structure).

The plugin "group filter" has been design to allow groups of users to perform the consume.
In your case, a vendor would be able to consume the serial of another vendor but it should not see it.
Otherwise, it would require a specific plugin like a "vendor filter" to not filter on Joomla user group but on the assigned vendor (the vendor related to the product which is linked with the serial).

Hi,

The customer will only provide serials to the right vendor.
If there is an order for the vendor A, the customer will show that serial to the vendor A and not to the vendor B.
That's why I don't see an issue even if the addition of a "vendor filter" plugin would be interesting.
