Exploring the iOffice Store Sync: Part Two

In our previous post, we explored the capabilities of the Store Sync feature in the iOffice cloud management and backup system. This feature ensures that certain business metrics are kept consistent across all locations for your iOffice account. In this part, we’ll demonstrate how to synchronize the Permissions settings across multiple salons.

Users of SuperSalon know that the Permissions settings are the security clearances for their staff, and that it’s important to keep them consistent. The large variety of individual permissions can be configured just once and then synchronized again, whenever there are updates or changes.

Step One
Log into iOffice and navigate to the Store Sync tab on the top menu.
