Bolt to Lightspeed K Series setup
What it does
This integration receives all orders made through the bolt app to the Lightspeed K Series tablet and printers. Upon receiving the order, receipts are printed based on the printing profile specified during the setup.
If an error occurs while sending the order to lightspeed an email will be sent to the email addresses enter within the settings.
If an error occurs due to an sku not existing within lightspeed K Series, an email will be sent to the email addresses entered within the settings. In addition a paper will be printed at the receipt printer informing the restaurant that the order did not print due to an invalid sku. If enabled within the settings, another order will be sent to lightspeed K Series with the sku as free text.
The current integration is one-way, meaning that it sends orders that are accepted to lightspeed.
You still need a device to accept or reject orders coming from bolt.
