Hi. How can we help?

Managing users in Lightspeed Accounting

Once you have Lightspeed Accounting set up and configured, you may want to also grant access to Lightspeed Accounting. You can grant access to as many users as you like.

  1. Navigate to Settings > Users.
  2. Click New User in the top right.

    The Create New User page.

  3. To create a new user, fill in their first name, last name, email address, and phone number (optionally), then select their Account type from the dropdown menu. You can choose from:
    • Reports Only: This user will have access to running and viewing reports in Lightspeed Accounting, but can’t make any changes to settings or mappings.
    • Full Access: This user will have unlimited access to Lightspeed Accounting and can make changes to settings and mappings.
  4. Click Save. An email will be sent to the new user inviting them to create a password and log in using their email address as their username. 

This email address is also used to send the user a daily report. This feature can be disabled if needed.

  1. Navigate to Settings > Users.
  2. Click on View Details by the user. 
  3. Check the Skip Daily Email checkbox.
  4. Click Update.
