User Permissions and Terminology

User Permissions and Terminology

The user manager section is considered high-level access and is permission / IP restriction based. It allows a user to Create, Edit, Enable and Disable user permissions. The Module Permissions screen displays all the modules available to a user. Check the box in the Access column to give access to the module for the selected user.  Don't forget to click [save changes] at the bottom of the screen.


IP restrictions, or locks, require the user to have the IP address(es) from the location they are logging in from in their User Account. Each user can have up to 15 approved IP addresses in their account at a time so access to eCellar can be from several locations. If you try to login and see the message "Invalid Authentication", the new IP address needs to be validated to authorize your login. Submit the IP address from the eCellar login page to the Support Team at supportteam@ecellar1.com and Support will add this IP address and grant to access to eCellar. The IP address can easily be identified on the eCELLAR Administrative Control Panel Log-in Page:
