What is it?
It's a feature available in Management Center. It is used by Administrators to force all mobile apps (iOS and Android) to update to the latest specified version. Until the update is completed, the mobile apps will not be usable.
Why is it important?
The main thing is: to make sure that the version of your mobile app(s) is as up to date as possible. Why? Because you need it to be fully compatible with everything else in PAR Ordering Ecosystem. When new features are developed for the mobile app, they only become available starting from the version that they were released on. Since Users must update their mobile apps (either automatically or manually, depending on their app store setup), not all of them will have the latest version of the app installed. This can cause issues - you want to use new features, but your app is still in its older version.
How to use it?
Pretty simple - you just need to contact your Customer Success Manager and request for it to be setup. Keep in mind that only Management Center (MC) Administrators can use this feature.
Please also note: It doesn't apply to Web Apps as they are always at the latest version when we make them go-live.
