What the Lightspeed Integration Supports
This article covers what the Lightspeed integration supports, including menu synchronisation, order passing, store configuration, and inventory management.
Menu Synchronisation
Supported menu structure and mapping
Slerp supports syncing a different menu per store, or the same menu across all stores. Multiple menus per store are not currently supported.
Supported Product and Pricing Types
We support all Lightspeed Product types. Products can have multiple modifier groups and modifiers, with either a fixed price for the group or individual prices per modifier.
We do not support the following Pricing types
-
Manually-entered price
-
Manually entered negative price (There is an exception for fees)
-
Price as a percentage
What is not synced from Lightspeed
The following must be configured directly in Slerp:
- Category special availability and cut-off times
- Category descriptions
- Product SEO descriptions (depending on your configuration, Slerp can generate these for you automatically)
Order Synchronisation
Slerp passes orders to Lightspeed when placed and listens for updates. For more details see here.
Store Configuration
Opening times, order types, and fulfilment types are not synced from Lightspeed and must be configured directly in Slerp. This can be done before or after linking your store to Lightspeed.
If you need to close your store or set special opening hours, this must be done via Controls or the Slerp Partner App.
Inventory Management
When a product is marked as out of stock in the Lightspeed POS, it will automatically be marked as out of stock in Slerp. Syncing stock counts is not currently supported.
