 * I’m trying to use Groups plugin in conjunction with WooCommerce. I have talked
   to the commerce people and they do not think what I would like to do is possible,
   and told me to post in the groups forum.
 * We are not using this as a traditional shopping cart.
 * so for example:
 * -You have a company.
    -In this company there are 3 departments. -Each department
   has a department manager. -In each department there are many users(customers?).-
   The users should be able to sign in and only see the products for their department,
   and order/pay for these items. -The department manager should be able to login,
   and see and approve any and all orders placed by his department, but NOT see 
   any orders placed from another department.
 * Right now I am having a problem trying to get the last point to work.
    I have
   already set up users, and roles, and have different products showing up for the
   different departments. HOWEVER when you login to the back end you see ALL the
   orders placed by every department. I would like the department manager to only
   see the orders placed by HIS department. Is this possible?

 * It can be made possible using capabilities but not without customization that
   hides orders based on those capabilities. You could use Groups’ API to check 
   the capabilities and then filter the orders based on these, or more directly 
   filter the queries that are used to show the orders and use the capabilities 
   for that. But … it’s not something that can be done OOTB.

 * Thanks itthinx,
 * I think we are going to go with prestacart as it does what we need it to do, 
   and we are having a bunch of issues on another site using WooCommerce, not getting
   any support for plugins we have purchased. Not pleased with their service at 
   all.
