Creating and Publishing a Canvas (Menu Item Category)

This will help you create a canvas in office.focuspos.com. 

Step 1: Log in to your account on office.focuspos.com

Step 2: Click on "Menu" from the commands list on the left side. "Menu" is the fork and knife icon. 

Step 3: Select the "Canvases" option

Step 4: Click on an empty canvas slot. The empty canvases usually have a number for a name. Click on the empty canvas to display the canvas options on the right side.

Step 5: Name your canvas as desired. You do not have to change any other settings as the canvases are already pre-configured. 

Step 6: Click "Add to Collection" on the bottom right corner.

Step 7: Name your collection and click save.

Step 8: Once the collection is saved, click on the top left corner on "Collections"

Step 9: Here you can see all the collections you created. Find and click on the collection you just created.

Step 10: You will see an option to publish in the bottom right corner. Click Publish and select the store you are publishing too if there are multiple locations.

Step 11: Select either option "ASAP" or "Schedule"  to specify when you would like the changes to be downloaded to the store level. 

Step 12: Click Publish to finally push the changes to the store level. Usually changes take around 1-2 minutes to download and apply at the store level. You will see a "Complete" box once the changes take place on the store level.

Once the canvas is added to the store level, you will have to add it to Locations in order for the canvas to display on the Front of House order entry screen. The article below will walk you through the process of adding a canvas to a location.
