Secure
Each employee is assigned a PIN. This is used to log who last handled your product. Employees have a limited set of abilities. They can for instance print new product labels, re-print damaged product labels, print predefined static text labels and review, search and reprint existing labels. Each action is logged and visible by the owner.
Owners have a password to a store that allows for customization, product and employee maintenance, export of label logs and detailed auditing of activity. The password prevents employees from changing store settings or updating products. Below is a complete list of abilities.
