How to manually synchronize your Restaurant POS device with the Back Office

What's in this article?

Your POS device automatically downloads updated items, customers and other important data from the Back Office every few minutes. However, occasionally, you may need to manually synchronize the Point of Sale app to ensure that updated data is available immediately. 

NOTE:
Your POS device must be connected to the internet to synchronize with the Back Office. If you are unable to connect to the internet for any reason, you cannot process credit card transactions in your Point of Sale app and you will not receive updated item and customer records from the Back Office.

To synchronize your Restaurant POS with the Back Office

  1. From the Point of Sale app slide-out menu ☰,  tap Settings.
  2. Tap POS Data Sync.

    Settings menu select POS data sync
  3. Tap Sync Now.
