The Reset Password option on the Employee List page is exclusively available to users with the Owner role. If an employee works at multiple store locations, the Owner can only reset their password if they hold ownership over all the stores associated with that employee. In situations where the Owner does not have full ownership across every relevant store, they will not have direct access to reset the employee’s password. In these cases, the employee must use the email-based password reset process to regain access.
