Getting started
Welcome to Thuta POS. This guide walks you through setting up your restaurant from a fresh account to taking your first order.
1. Create your restaurant account
Open the registration page and enter your restaurant name, your email, and a password. You will also choose:
- Country — Myanmar, Thailand, or Japan. This sets your default currency,
timezone, and tax rules, so choose the country where the restaurant operates.
- Tax registration number — your Commercial Tax / VAT / Qualified-invoice
number, depending on the country. You can leave this blank and add it later in Settings.
When you submit, your organization and first branch are created and you become the owner.
2. Sign in
There are two entry points on the login screen:
- Owner / manager — full access to the dashboard, settings, and reports.
- Staff — opens straight into the POS terminal for cashiers and servers.
Use the owner account you just created to sign in for the first time.
3. Set up your branch
From the dashboard, open Settings → Branch. Confirm the branch name, currency, timezone, and tax configuration. If you operate more than one location, you can add additional branches here.
4. Add your menu
Go to Menu to create categories (for example *Drinks*, *Mains*, *Desserts*) and then add items with prices. See the [Menu guide](/docs/menu) for details.
5. Add your team
Open Staff to invite cashiers, servers, and managers, and assign each person a role. Staff members sign in through the staff portal and only see what their role allows.
6. Take your first order
Open POS from the dashboard (or sign in through the staff portal). Pick a table or an order type, add items from your menu, and complete the sale. Your first receipt is generated automatically with the correct tax for your country.
