Settings copy overview

For settings that are not shared across locations (in other words, do not use owners and targets to apply settings to multiple locations), you can use the settings copy feature to apply settings used at one location to another location or locations. Choose Toast account > Business and location management > Settings copy tool to open the Settings copy page.

Note

To use the settings copy feature, you must have the Restaurant Admin > Settings Copy Tool permission at the locations you are copying from and to.

Copying settings can be useful if you want to use the same configuration at one location for another location.

If you own multiple locations, there are two methods you can use to apply settings across your locations:

  • Using targets and owners to apply settings to multiple locations

  • Using the settings copy feature to copy configurations from one location to another

Only one method is available for each setting.

Unlike when targets and owners are used, once you copy settings using the settings copy tool, changing those settings does not affect other locations. Settings are copied from the session restaurant.
