Restaurant365 provides a hosted FTP site for each Customer Database. FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol and allows Vendors, Customers, and R365 Users to Upload acceptable files in to their instance. The FTP Site serves three purposes for Customers:

  1.  Vendor/Customer Automatic Imports via EDI
  2.  Documents to Process Uploads
  3. Mass deposit upload for DSS


Each Customer Instance will have a unique FTP Site with unique FTP Credentials. These credentials would have been provided to the project lead during implementation.  

  • Note: Please contact R365 Support for any inquiries regarding FTP Site Credentials.



Security & Navigation


Any individual that has been provided the FTP Site credentials can access the FTP Site for the specific Customer. Restaurant365 User Roles do not effect access to the FTP Site.


The FTP Site is only accessible via an FTP Client. It is not accessed within Restaurant365.
