Full Data Backup is different from Transaction Backup and eMenu Cloud Sync

Transaction Backup (sometimes known as Cloud Backup) has the following functions and features:
- sends out Daily Sales Report(s)
- backs up transactions
- automatically runs hourly
- can be configured to avoid running during peak hours
- backups are located on FoodZaps cloud and can be accessed online via online portal


eMenu Cloud Sync is a feature that allows you to edit the eMenu online. It does NOT carry out backups.
In case of an emergency, you can contact assist@foodzaps.com to restore the menu to another device via the eMenu Cloud Sync.
