Employee control within Lightning is a well-developed, security-focused feature designed to give business owners total visibility and authority over daily operations. Administrators and authorized users can define precise user permissions, including access restrictions, maximum discount thresholds, and even track detailed password reset history for accountability. In multi-store environments, this functionality scales beautifully, allowing centralized control over all locations without sacrificing local oversight.

To further enhance control, Lightning enables real-time alerts via email when key events occur—such as closing reports, product returns, voided transactions, inventory adjustments, and more—ensuring you’re immediately aware of any unusual or high-risk activity. The automatic nightly closeout reports delivered directly to your smartphone is a fan favoriate, you’re always in the loop, even when you’re away from the store. It’s a comprehensive system built to support smarter management, tighter security, and peace of mind.
