Store groups and store roles

Store groups are primarily used in a franchise model, where different owners have their stores within the same group. They are used in certain workflow steps to prioritize stores within the same group before prioritizing stores across different groups. Each store can be linked to one group.

Store roles are used to assign different functions to the stores. Internally in Omnium, the workflow will use this to include or exclude steps if the stores are assigned specific roles. Through the API, this can be used for general store grouping for various purposes.
