Explore the latest updates in Lightspeed Restaurant (O-Series) for May 2025. From Back Office upgrades to POS improvements, here’s a look at the newest additions and enhancements.
User roles & multi-user management
Take the hassle out of user management
Managing staff access just got a lot easier. With the option to assign user roles, bulk actions, and a cleaner interface, you can update permissions in seconds and ensure every team member has the right access at every location.
Managing user permissions
Easily create roles based on job types with just a few clicks. Choose from default roles like Front of house or Bookkeeper to get started, or create custom roles for more precise control over team permissions.
No more managing users one by one. Assign roles, grant access, and delete users in bulk to save time and minimize errors.
See more users on one screen, filter by role or site, and spot access issues at a glance. It’s a smoother, smarter way to keep tabs on who’s doing what and where.
Product Availability
Real-time modifier availability
Running low on oat milk or down to your last 10 truffle upgrades? Now you can quickly update modifier availability right from the POS. Mark items as sold out or set quantity limits instantly, without needing to access your Back Office.
Lightspeed Customer Display
Customer Display video backgrounds
In addition to photos, you can now upload video backgrounds to your Customer Display and showcase your promos, menus, or branding. Plus, enjoy a more stable, reliable connection between your POS and Customer Display, all managed easily from your Back Office.
Supported file types include JPEG, PNG, and MP4. Image uploads must be between 657 × 748 pixels (minimum) and 1971 × 2244 pixels (maximum). Video uploads must not exceed 50MB in file size, with a maximum resolution of 1920 × 1080.
Reprinting dockets
Reprint dockets any time
With the 12-hour limit removed, you can now reprint orders from days ago without any time restrictions. Dockets are available for reprinting whenever you need them.
Enhanced order search
Look up orders using a customer’s name
You can now search past orders by customer name, faster and more intuitive than entering a receipt number. Navigate to the History tab in your POS to get started.
