I want to know whether it is possible to have multiple stores under 1 Magento installations.. which means there will be 3-4 Paypal accounts integrated on my site and each product is integrated to 1 one of them.
Yes. All PayPal module settings have website or store view configuration scopes.

We are trying to figure out if its possible to have the following logic on magento CE.
Admin adds products to Magento, but they are to be marked as admin viewable on the front-end only, which means customers will NOT be able to see those SPECIFIC products on the frontend.
Note: customers will still be able to view all the rest of the products on the site, except admin viewable products.
Some products by customization can be made available for some certain customer groups.
So using logic related to this you can achieve your goal.
I work for a web store selling fashion accessories, and they have one store front for their national site and another for international customers (without VAT).
Occasionally we get customers who order items in the national store because they are on sale and then check out in the international store (by changing store fronts with the standard store front switcher in magento).
If you go directly to the international site via URL, you get an empty shopping cart, but if you use the store front switcher the cart can persist with products from the other store that are not normally available in the international store. Does anyone know how to completely separate these, or empty the cart when switching store fronts?
Well If you create separate website with a single magento setup then customer will not be shared.
This also means that both sites will be independent of each other from customers perspective.
Can you confirm whether your stores are created as different website or same website but different stores.
In admin, System >> Configuration >> Web >> Session Validation Settings,
set Use SID on Frontend to No.
But this will also logout customers coming from different store.
friends,
I'm in doubt about the possibility of a configuration with multiple store magento.
I will explain my business:
I have a online store selling jewelry.
What I need:
I want to create micro franchise scheme to expand my shop
I want to provide a copy of my partner shop:
Different domain
Same products
Receive different paypal account
The seller will only see a list of your customers (independent customers)
The seller will only see a list of their requests (requests independent)
The main shop can see everything (requests, customers)
Is that possible?
Is there any technical procedure?
Is there any extension that makes it work so simple in creation of additional stores?
Please help me on how I can do this.
I have interest in hiring the service of realizing this project.
Thank you all!

This is totally possible and easy enough to do with the multi-store and store front views.. You will need to edit the httpd.conf file for your domain problem Magento Multiple Store and Views
then the login to the admin area for the sellers would be set to only view their customers/items etc. via the roles and permissions on the system.
I have just added another website to my Magento eCommerce site and I would like my existing customer bass to be able to login to the new website with the same username and password that they have registered with for the original site. I also need any customer who signs up in the future to be assigned to both websites.
When I go to edit a user there is a drop-down box to say which website they are associated with, but the field is disabled and doesn't look like a multi select drop-down. Which would suggest to me that Magento isn't set up to share details between websites.
Does anyone know if this is possible?
In the admin, under System > Configuration > Customers > Customer Configuration > Account Sharing Options, you'll be able to choose between sharing accounts per website or globally.
I have no doubt magento can handle multiple stores, but I was wondering if each stores can handle with such specific user wherein they can access their catalog, sales, inventory, etc like administrator, but limited only on their specific store.
Here's my sample representation:
Magento website:
->Store Categories
-->Store1
--->Product Categories
----->Products
--->Store Owner -------- Who can logged in the backend to see all their products, sales, inventory, etc.. Only
access their store.
-->Store2
--->Product Categories
----->Products
--->Store Owner2 ------ Who can logged in the backend to see all their products, sales, inventory, etc.. Only
access their store.
No, Magento is not built to allow different vendors to have access only to their information. I believe that Enterprise tries to add some of this functionality, but do not rely on the system keeping everything separate.
Notably, even if the products can be hacked, there is no such system of permissions for attributes, or attribute sets. If one owner deletes an attribute set, the store for the other owner will be affected. Similarly, the category manager has the same issue. Order management in the backend is in the same place.
Maybe not the answer you wanted, but hopefully that helps.
Thanks,
Joe
Not at the Community Edition.
The Enterprise Edition allows you to set that kind of roles.
