    A: Data refresh is determined by the schedule set for the integration, Example: If you set Hourly to start at 00:02 as indicated in the steps above the data will refresh at 2 mins past each hour. For more info verify the setting an import schedule in the above steps of this article.
    Q: Does T.M.A.S. obtain staff data from Heartland Retail?
    A: Currently the T.M.A.S. integration does NOT poll any staffing data from the Heartland Retail POS application. 
    Q: Can T.M.A.S. export information into Hearland Retail?
    A: We do not have an integration that directly sends traffic data to Heartland to populate their dashboard. 
    Our integration with Heartland works by transferring data from their software into T.M.A.S. 
    A third-party can assist in setting up this connection within Heartland using either our API or flat file export.
