# POS Integration Offline - Restoration Guide

If you receive an offline notification email, the location has failed to respond to us for 5 minutes. 

IMPORTANT! While the location is offline you won't be able to retrieve POS data or perform admin tasks on POS, such as map tables. 

The most common causes are network disruption at the location or the back of house computer has been restarted.

### Restart Agent Service

If the back office server/computer is online and has access to the internet, we recommend restarting the POS Agent service using these steps:

1. Click the **Windows Start** button
2. Click **Run**
3. type in "services.msc"
4. Click **OK** and a new window for Services will open
5. in that window, scroll down until you see the **POS Agent** and **POS Agent Updater** services
6. right-click on **POS Agent** and click **Restart** or **Start** (whichever isn't grayed out)
7. a progress bar will appear, wait until it finishes
8. right-click on **POS Agent** and click **Refresh**
9. in the Status column to the right of **POS Agent,** it should say **Started**
10. right-click on **POS Agent Updater** and click **Restart** or **Start** (whichever isn't grayed out)
11. a progress bar will appear, wait until it finishes
12. right-click on **POS Agent Updater** and click **Refresh**
13. in the **Status** column to the right of **POS Agent Updater,** it should say **Started**
