Question 1

Set up in lightspeed: payment means, table mapping, delivery method pricing & voucher coupons

Accepted Answer

In order to make it possible for Sayl Resto to integrate with LS, some important configuration should be done in Lightspeed. This involves dedicating the payment means & table mapping with Sayl Resto names. Potentially you will also need to configure your delivery method pricing & voucher coupons between LS and Sayl Resto.

Payment means

You must define a dedicated payment method for the online payments that go via Sayl Resto. Just add one of the following names to your payment methods in LS and our Sayl Resto system will automatically recognise this:
For cash payment :add one of the following pay methods: 'Ask Emma cash', 'askemma cash' (note: cash is in practice only used for testing reasons for takeaway/delivery. When going live, remove this payment method in LS. When using eatin in combination with ‘pay at cash register’, askemma cash should be there!) For online payment : 'askemma' During the injection into Lightspeed, Sayl Resto will check if one of these payment types are defined. If one value matches, the payment is then automatically linked to that payment type.

payment types Lightspeed

The payment type field of the method ‘askemma’ must be eligible for online payments. In most cases, this is something like ‘CARD’. If you configure the type field wrong in the payment method within Lightspeed, your orders will NOT arrive in Lightspeed.

If you use eatin, we strongly r

In this example, the voucher can be used 100 times. However, there is an extra restriction. One person can use the voucher 10 times. This means that 10 people can only use the voucher 10 times. After this, the voucher is not valid anymore.

Question 6

Connect the SAYL platform to lighstpeed

Accepted Answer

Connect your Lightspeed account

You can import all your products, modifiers & variations at once. Follow the below steps to connect the Lightspeed account & Sayl platform.

Step by step :

Start from the General Dashboard, go to the menu section ‘Integrations’, select Lightspeed and click on “point of sale”. If no point of sale exists yet, click on the ‘Add button’ and fill in the required details.

Put a name in the Name field and select the related restaurant.

Click on the button ‘connect to Lightspeed’.

You will now need to log in into your Lightspeed account. Make sure you have the credentials of your Lightspeed cash register at hand.

Some Lightspeed customers have a password with escape characters in, like a backslash “\”. This causes the Lightspeed system to throw a “server error”, in the developer console you’ll see “URL_SCHEME incorrect”. To overcome this error, you must double each . So if your password is 12\34, you must enter 12\34.

The login user must have admin rights, otherwise you can not connect on the API

after connecting Lightspeed, you return to the Sayl screen. Click ‘Save’ at the right top.

Congrats: You just successfully connected Sayl with Lightspeed. Head on to the importing of products and tables.

Make sure orders arrive in LS at your preferred terms
