Updating an Existing Design with Toast Data
A design may already be completed in the account, but is not yet using data from your Toast POS. This article will walk through the steps to update the design using the MustHaveMenus integration with Toast.
Updating an Existing Design with Toast Data
From within the design editor, select File, and then select Make a Copy.
Give the copy a unique file name, and the design copy will automatically open in the design editor.
Select Text on the left panel.Select the Import items button.
A pop up will appear. In the top, select the POS button.
Select the Toast tile, and follow the prompts to log into a Toast POS account.
Once logged in, choose the specific location that the menu data needs imported from.
Next, select the menu items to import from Toast. After making the selections, click the Add groups button.
The imported Menu Groups will now be visible under the My Menu Groups section in the left panel.
To add them to the menu design, click on the desired Menu Group from the left panel. This action will highlight all the Menu Group text boxes, and click to replace will display over them.
Choose the text box where the items should be placed, and the Menu Group will import into the selected box.
Repeat these steps until all of the desired Menu Groups have been added to the design.
Best practices and tips
- Please note that using text from Toast will replace the data on the design completely. That is why we recommend making a copy of the original design.
- We recommend always updating the menu items first on Toast, then come back to MustHaveMenus and use the design updater tab to push your changes to the saved designs.
- Always review your designs after using the design updater tab. This is to ensure that all of the sections remain neatly laid out on the designs and there is not text overlap.
