Troubleshooting & Escalation

This playbook covers the most common issues restaurant and regional teams encounter on the Atlas Platform, and the correct escalation path when self-service doesn't resolve the problem.


Common Issues & Fixes

Restaurant not appearing in the customer app

CheckHow
Is the restaurant set to Live?Byte Portal → Profile → Status
Are all channels disabled?Channel Settings — at least one must be active
Were GPS coordinates set correctly?Profile → Location — confirm pin placement

If all checks pass and the restaurant is still not visible after 30 minutes, escalate to your BMU.


Customer cannot complete checkout

Most common causes:

  1. The selected item has been deactivated since the customer added it to cart
  2. A promo code has expired or reached its usage limit
  3. The delivery address is outside the restaurant's delivery radius

Franchisee action: Check Menu → Items for any recently deactivated items. Check Channel Settings → Delivery Radius if delivery orders are failing.


  1. Check Menu → Items → [Item] → Pricing to confirm the price in Byte Portal
  2. If the Byte Portal price is correct but the app shows differently, wait 15 minutes for cache refresh
  3. If the issue persists after 15 minutes, raise a ticket via the JIRA Service Desk

Franchisee locked out of Byte Portal

  1. Go to the login page and use Forgot Password — this sends a reset link to their registered email
  2. If the email is not received within 5 minutes, check spam folders
  3. If the account has been deactivated, a Regional Admin must reinstate it under Settings → Users

Orders not coming through on delivery

  1. Confirm the Delivery channel is enabled in Channel Settings
  2. Check that operating hours include the current time for the Delivery channel
  3. Confirm the Temporarily Closed toggle is off
  4. If integrated with an aggregator (Uber Eats / DoorDash), check the aggregator platform directly — the issue may be on their side
