Product Release Notes
Reports: FTP
The ability to establish a File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server is now available in Restaurant Management.
This feature will send a file containing extensive data in a format that can be easily used to insert into a
preestablished report of their own creation. Once a customer inputs their server information, Restaurant Management can be configured to send data nightly. Located in Reports, the FTP configuration is shown in a grid. Each store that the user has access to will be displayed in the grid. Press the configuration gear to have a submenu appear.
The General Tab allows for the FTP server configurations as well as the options to establish if the file should
be uploaded nightly. Additional data options can be toggled on if they’re applicable to the business.

Pressing the Test FTP button will initiate a test to see whether the credentials used were correctly inputted.
A corresponding message will appear depending on success or failure.
The Data Upload Tab can be used to generate an FTP on demand - just choose a date and press the upload button to send the file to the site.
Whether the file is upload daily or manually, a file will appear at the destinated FTP address for usage.
