Before you begin,

- Verify that users have the Consumer Goods User license before assigning permission sets. Contact your Account Executive for assistance. See [View and Manage Your Permission Set Licenses](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.users_permissionset_licenses_view.htm&type=5&language=en_US).
- Before you assign permission sets, make sure that the user is mapped to the CGCloud\_User\_Profile user profile.
- Review the considerations before assigning permission sets.

1. To use the Consumer Goods Cloud Managed package starting from Summer ’24, use the [Permission Sets from Summer 24](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.cg_permsets_re_from_summer24.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Review the recommended managed package permission sets for different user roles within the Consumer Goods Cloud.") table. If you started using the Consumer Goods Managed package before Summer ’24, use the [Permission Sets before Summer 24](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.cg_permsets_re_before_summer24.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Before Consumer Goods Summer ’24, permission sets were delivered as static resources (unmanaged permission sets) that customers had to add manually. To avail automatic managed package push upgrades, upgrade to Winter ’26 or higher. Migrate to managed permission sets and reapply your customizations to the new permission sets.") table.
2. Assign the appropriate [permission sets](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.perm_sets_manage_assignments.htm&type=5&language=en_US) based on the user role from the relevant permission set table.
3. To confirm that users can access the features and functions they need, test the permissions in a sandbox environment. Then, deploy to production.

Your users can access specific Consumer Goods Cloud features based on their assigned permission sets. They don't need to change their existing profiles.
