Upload Files via the R365 Red App

Restaurant Managers can upload relevant documents to Documents to Process directly from the R365 Red App. For Vendors that only provide physical copies of an Invoice or Credit Memo, Users can simply take a photo of the document with their phone and directly upload it to the system. With this simple functionality, Users can upload any important documents with ease and then enter the details of each transaction at a later time.

It is important to note that the photos and/or files uploaded will be saved as a combined PDF in Documents to Process. If photos and/or files should be separated, ensure to repeat this process for each.

Security

Uploading Documents to Process is available to Users with either one of the following Permissions:

• Accounts Payable → Docs to Process → Upload Docs to Process Documents

• Food → Docs to Process → Upload Docs to Process Documents
