In short

How do I automatically reconcile Lightspeed end-of-day totals each night?

WebRun opens Lightspeed Retail every evening after close, reads end-of-day totals for each payment type, and logs them to a Google Sheets reconciliation file with variances calculated. Discrepancies above your set threshold are highlighted so your manager can review and sign off each morning without manual data entry.

  • Nightly reconciliation log is ready for manager review every morning
  • Variances above your threshold are highlighted automatically so nothing slips through
  • Manual data entry for end-of-day close is eliminated entirely

Questions, answered

Does it close the till or process any transactions in Lightspeed?

No. WebRun reads the end-of-day report data only. Closing the till and approving the day's totals remains a human step your manager performs directly in Lightspeed.

What counts as a variance worth flagging?

You set the tolerance, for example flag anything more than $5 off. WebRun highlights rows above that threshold in Google Sheets so your manager focuses only on meaningful discrepancies.

Can it run for multiple registers or locations?

Yes. WebRun can capture end-of-day totals per register or per location in Lightspeed and log each as a separate section in the Google Sheets reconciliation file.
