Default Assignment
By default, a buyer user will see all variants he has created. Additionally, there are two variant permissions that can be assigned which will allow the buyer user to see variants created by other buyer users.
1. View Product Variants For All Buyer-Users: The buyer user will see all variants created by users within his buyer company.
2. View Product Variants For All Group-Users: The buyer user will see all variants created by buyer users that are in one or more common group.
