## Manage Minecraft Education Edition
|
||||
|
||||
### Access to Windows Store for Business
|
||||
By default, when a teacher with a work or school account in your edu tenant acquires Minecraft: Education Edition, they are automatically signed up for Window Store for Business, and the **Basic Purchaser** role is assigned to them. **Basic Purchaser** role allows teachers to acquire Minecraft: Education Edition and to distribute it to students.
|
||||
|
||||
However, tenant admins can control whether or not teachers automatically sign up for Windows Store for Business, and get the **Basic Purachaser** role. You can configure this with the **Allow educators in my organization to sign up for the Windows Store for Business.** You'll find this on the **Permissions** page.
|
||||
|
||||
To prevent educators from automatically signing up for Windows Store for Business
|
||||
1. In Windows Store for Business, click **Settings**, and then click **Permissions**.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
2. Click **Allow educators in my organization to sign up for the Windows Store for Business.**
|
||||
|
||||
### Roles and permissions
|
||||
Minecraft: Education Edition adds a new role for teachers: **Basic Purchaser**. When a teacher has been granted this role, they can:
|
||||
- View the Minecraft product description page
|
||||
- Acquire and manage the app
|
||||
- Info on Support page (including links to documentation and access to support through customer service)
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
**To assign Basic Purchaser role**
|
||||
|
||||
1. Sign in to Store for Business
|
||||
|
||||
**Note**</br>
|
||||
You need to be a Global Administrator, or have the Store for Business Admin role to access the Permissions page.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Click **Settings**, and then choose **Permissions**.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
3. Click **Add people**, type a name, select the correct person, choose the role you want to assign, and click **Save**.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Windows Store for Business updates the list of people and permissions.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Private store
|
||||
|
||||
When you create you Windows Store for Business account, you'll have a set of apps included for free in your private store. Apps in your private store are available for all people in your organization to install and use.
|
||||
|
||||
These apps will automatically be in your private store:
|
||||
- Word mobile
|
||||
- Excel mobile
|
||||
- PowerPoint mobile
|
||||
- OneNote
|
||||
- Sway
|
||||
