Managing Employees

There are 2 types of employee accounts

• Manager (full access)

The manager role should be assigned to employees who should have full access to the software, including the ability to open the Manager Window and Import/Export Customers and Products.

• Employee (limited access)

The Employee type will give users access to enter sales, orders, purchase orders, Till Count, and other basic functions, but will prevent them from opening the Manager Window, importing and exporting Customers and Products.
