Default Creating Separate Admin Menu

I'd like to create a dummied down version of the admin menu with only a subset of the admin functions, but retain the full menu for the master account. Any recommendations on the best way to go about doing this?

Obviously, NOBODY is using the name "master" as their login... a security no-no. but yes, Phil's answer is the way to do it.

Or just create a 'fulfillment staff' account that only gives them access to orders and disables all the dangerous stuff.

Yes, but...

I did this for my partner -- I wanted to give her access to some, but not all. To protect her from herself, and less options to confuse her. Fulfillment by default is quite limited (as designed) so for some stores, a "junior master wannabe" level can be useful. Took 5 minutes to load up a menu.

Maybe some day, we'll get a "fullfilment staff include" settings option...
