Connect and sync

  1. 1
    Pick your system

    In the providers list, select Connect on your POS.

  2. 2
    Enter what it asks for

    The dialog asks for that system's access key or sign-in and tells you where to find it. tamr checks the connection before saving it.

  3. 3
    Run the first sync

    The first sync creates a new menu as a draft with your categories, dishes and prices. Review it, add photos and notes, then publish it.

  4. 4
    Sync again after till changes

    Open the connection and select Sync now. Later syncs update the same menu.

A sync replaces that menu's sections and dishes

Each sync rewrites the synced menu's categories and dishes from the POS in one step. Edits you made to those dishes in tamr are replaced. Keep the POS as the source of truth for names and prices.

FAQ

The status says Last sync failed.

Open the connection to read the error. The usual cause is an expired or changed key on the POS side: disconnect, connect again with a new key, then Sync now.

Does the POS receive orders from tamr?

No. The sync brings the menu in. Table orders appear in tamr under Orders →.

Can I disconnect later?

Yes. Disconnecting stops syncing. The menu stays in tamr.
