Overview
Introducing our SSMM feature, designed to streamline operations for multi-location businesses like yours. With SSMM, you can effortlessly create a Menu and connect it to the Point of Sale (POS) system at one of your locations.
Once linked, the Menu automatically syncs with all your other locations, giving you centralized control from one location! with the ability to replicate it seamlessly across all your other locations while maintaining the POS connection.
Simplify your management tasks and enhance customer experience with SSMM.
Here's what our system does:
- Maintains POS Links: Your menu items remain linked to the POS while being replicated across all locations.
-
Error Notifications: If there are any issues during replication, our system will promptly notify you, such as:
- Items in the menu not linked at a particular location
- Inactive integrations at one or more locations
- Mismatched item IDs or menu content across locations
