Synalux POS — Quick Start Guide

Get your restaurant POS up and running in under 30 minutes.

Choose the correct account path

Your venue was purchased through a reseller: do not buy another plan or

create another workspace. Open the invitation Synalux sent to the approved

site-admin email and follow Site Admin Onboarding.

You purchased POS directly and no workspace has been provisioned: continue

with the self-serve steps below.

Step 1: Create Your Account

Go to synalux.ai/pricing and choose a plan

Complete the sign-up process with your business email

You'll be redirected to your dashboard

These steps are only for direct self-serve customers. A reseller-provisioned

site admin signs in from the single-use invitation instead.

Step 2: Set Up Your Menu

Navigate to POS → Menu Builder in the sidebar

Create Categories (e.g., Appetizers, Entrees, Drinks)

Add Items to each category with name, price, and modifiers

Set up Modifier Groups for customizations (size, toppings, cooking temp)

Step 3: Configure Your Floor Plan

Go to POS → Tables & Floor Plan

Drag and drop tables onto the floor plan

Assign table numbers and capacities

Create sections if you have multiple dining areas

Step 4: Set Up Payment Processing

Navigate to POS → Settings → Payments

Connect your payment processor (Dejavoo/Elavon or Stripe Terminal)

Configure tax rates for your jurisdiction

Enable tips if applicable

Step 5: Add Staff

Go to POS → Staff & Labor

Add employees with their roles (manager, server, cashier, kitchen)

Set up PINs for quick clock-in

Configure role-based permissions

Step 6: Launch!

Open the POS register on any device with a browser

Start taking orders
