1.Introduction
This is the manual for the integration between Lightspeed eCom and Eenvoudigfactureren.
This integration ensures that orders or invoices from the Lightspeed eCom webshop are automatically processed to invoices in Eenvoudigfactureren. Because the orders or invoices enter the merchant's accounting system directly, it saves time on financial administration. It is possible to process paid orders from the webshop or invoices.
Please pay special attention to the following
- This integration is a financial integration. It is not a logistics integration. It is not suitable for updating customers in Eenvoudigfactureren, printing packing slips, or synchronizing products/inventory.
- This integration does not replace the work of an accountant. It saves time because you no longer have to retype documents. The accountant is still needed for advice, expertise, and control.
Tip: Other customers using this integration found the tips in the FAQ for Lightspeed eCom and in the FAQ for Eenvoudigfactureren.
Install integration
You install this integration from the Lightspeed eCom App Store. If you select the Accounting category, our apps will appear automatically. You can recognize us as a supplier by the blue area and the white gear icon at the top right. If you click on the App, you will see a description and the Install button. Upon activation, you will be automatically guided through the configuration screens.
The installation is complete when both connection dots are green, and the settings in the Configuration tab have been entered and saved.
Important: Once the integration is installed, always log in to the dashboard via https://uwkoppeling.webwinkelfacturen.nl, and not from the app store.
The trial period for the integration is 30 days.
If you want to install another integration, you can do so in the same way. Make sure you are logged out of the integration dashboard and preferably start the new installation in an incognito browser.

Has the installation been successful, but do you see in the dashboard of the integration the old license key still present when you click the dropdown arrow next to the key (even though that app/key has been deleted)? If so, please send us an email requesting that the old key be removed.

2.How the integration works
A order or invoice from the Lightspeed eCom webshop is processed to a Eenvoudigfactureren invoice.
The integration works with webhooks from the Lightspeed eCom webshop. Processing can be done in two ways, namely based on paid orders or invoices. The advantage of the option paid orders is that orders that are not paid do not enter the accounting system. With this option, however, credit notes are not included. With the option invoices all invoices are processed to Eenvoudigfactureren, so both debit and credit invoices. You can set the preference for paid orders or invoices via the Configuration tab of the dashboard.

Pre-check orders or invoices
At the start of processing an order, we perform a number of checks on the Lightspeed eCom order or invoice:
At the start of processing an order, we perform a number of checks on the Lightspeed eCom order or invoice:
- It is checked whether the total of the Lightspeed eCom order / invoice is equal to the sum of the amounts in the order / invoice lines plus the shipping costs amount.
- If the order / invoice is an ICP sale, the VAT number is checked.
- It is checked whether a corresponding VAT code exists in Eenvoudigfactureren for the VAT in each line.
- It is checked whether the order or invoice has not already been processed.
Processing orders or invoices
Upon a successful check, the Eenvoudigfactureren invoice is created and processed to Eenvoudigfactureren. The debtor details are placed in the Eenvoudigfactureren invoice. Eenvoudigfactureren itself checks if the debtor is already present.
Post-check
After the order or invoice has been forwarded and a success message from Eenvoudigfactureren has been received, the order or invoice is marked as handled. The Lightspeed eCom order appears at the Reporting tab on the dashboard.
If Eenvoudigfactureren returns an error while processing the order or invoice, the order or invoice appears in the Errors tab on the dashboard. Via the yellow button More info more information about the problem can be found. Via the red button Report problem can the order or invoice with all necessary information easily be submitted to us after you have tried to resolve the problem yourself. If the problem is solved, in some cases the orders or invoices can be processed again with the blue Process button.
Data
Information about the data that is processed can be found in the section Day-to-day: To Eenvoudigfactureren later in the manual.

6.Day-to-day: To Eenvoudigfactureren
Below is the creation of new Eenvoudigfactureren invoices specified at field level.
Creating invoices
When creating invoices, an invoice is created by default with the amounts incl. VAT and the order number in the reference field. The invoice number is empty by default, so that the invoice number is determined within Eenvoudigfactureren. We recommend this method.
However, it is possible to process the amounts excl. VAT. In some situations, there are also possibilities to add an order or invoice number to the reference and fill in the invoice number of Eenvoudigfactureren.
Create debtor
When processing customer information, it is first checked whether the customer has been processed before. If so, this Eenvoudigfactureren debtor is used as the debtor for the Eenvoudigfactureren transaction. If the customer is not yet known, they are added to Eenvoudigfactureren. Matching is based on email address. Please note: The integration only creates debtors. The integration does not modify debtors.
