As sellers expand their business scale, they need to hire more employees to manage their stores. The seller's store can only be managed by the Taobao account that created the store. Employees participating in store management can only log in through this account and have all the permissions of the account. In this way, it is impossible to allocate permissions according to employees' responsibilities, nor can they record the operations of each employee. If there is a problem, it is impossible to determine the responsibility, so Taobao launched sub-accounts.

The parent account can apply for multiple sub-accounts. By defining the role, accurately authorizing the role and giving the corresponding role to the sub-account, the sub-account will have the rights of the role it belongs to. Operation permission. By assigning sub-accounts to each employee, it greatly facilitates the seller's management of employees, improves work efficiency, and ensures the security of the parent account.

This is very detrimental to the sub-account's participation in the store. Operations and Management. In order to allow sub-accounts to use applications, Taobao Open Platform has added a "sub-account authorization" function. This function allows the application creator to set "whether to support Taobao sub-account login authorization" and the parent account setting to "authorize the sub-account to use the application". If the parent account has access to an app and "authorizes the child account to use the app," the child account can sign in and use the app just like the parent account. Application developers can control the display page and operation permissions of child accounts in the program based on the authorization relationship between the parent and child accounts.
