To display the newly added items to the front end of the end-user in the online store you need to do re-indexing

What is re-indexing?

Re-indexing is a technical concept where, a table will be constructed with all the attributes of the items which will be used to display all the items in the front end of the end-user, and serach will become faster.

Why is re-indexing required?

As we provide item sync without images of the items, it should not be showed immediately to the end-user.
So once images are imported and stored in the online store for each item, re-indexing can be done.
This fecilitates you to have teh control over the images that can be displayed for your end-user.

How to re-index?

You can open Index management from System->Index Management
In the above, screen you can select all the check boxes on the left and click submit to reindex everything

1) Enabling Sync features

Option to select the feature that is/are to be synced. (items,sales)
If both are enabled, Items/Sales order status sync will be automated, and also when sales order is placed by the end-user that order will be pushed to POS automatically. [We recommend]
If only items is selected, only items will be synced either periodically by scheduler/manually by button click and will be listed in your online store. Sales orders will stay in the E-commerce site itself, Retailer can manage from the Admin panel itself.
If only Sales is selected, Sales orders will get pushed to POS product, and also status of the order will be updated periodically. Here you have to take the risk of mapping item sku in POS and E-commerce site by doing it with csv import or some suitable means

2) Reset Item Sync

This can be used by the customer when they wish re-connect the online store to a different POS machine or when POS data base is restored.
Once customer resets the item sync, The very next item sync will be done completely from first to lastly updated item
