1.Introduction

This is the manual for the integration between Lightspeed eCom and King/MUIS.

This integration ensures that orders or invoices from the Lightspeed eCom webshop are automatically processed to journal entries or orders in King/MUIS. 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
  1. This integration is a financial integration. It is not a logistics integration. It is not suitable for updating customers in King/MUIS, printing packing slips, or synchronizing products/inventory.
  2. 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.
  3. Tip: Other customers using this integration found the tips in the FAQ for Lightspeed eCom and in the FAQ for King/MUIS.

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.

Cancel integration
If you want to terminate the integration, you can simply remove the app from the app store in your backend.

Are you switching to another accounting system and want to create a new integration? You can install the new app from the app store in your backend. Make sure you are logged out of the dashboard of the old integration and preferably start the new installation in an incognito browser.

Are you switching to another webshop system? Via our integrations page you can see whether you install it from the relevant app store, or by means of an installation link.

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 an King/MUIS journal entry or order. The desired option can be configured via the Configuration tab of the dashboard.

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 King/MUIS, 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:
  • 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 King/MUIS for the VAT in each line.
  • It is checked whether the order or invoice has not already been processed.

Processing orders or invoices
Processing a Lightspeed eCom order or invoice to King/MUIS happens in three steps:

  1. It is checked if the customer already exists in King/MUIS. If not, the customer is created. Matching is based on the email address.
  2. When processing to King/MUIS orders, it is checked whether the products from the Lightspeed eCom order or invoice are already present in King/MUIS. Missing products are created.
  3. The King/MUIS journal entry or order is created and processed.

Post-check
After the order or invoice has been forwarded and a success message from King/MUIS has been received, the order or invoice is marked as handled. The Lightspeed eCom order appears at the Reporting tab on the dashboard.

If King/MUIS 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 King/MUIS later in the manual.

3.Required: MUIS environmental code

To integrate with MUIS, you need to request an environment code. MUIS has a manual explaining how to do this. A shortened version follows.

Read more Required Imuis ....
Read less Required Imuis ....

Option 1: The entrepreneur / accountant works with iMUIS Online (SAAS / Web-based)

For the integration, the customer requires a subscription to the iMUIS Online Cloudswitch module for each administration. The accountant can select this for the entrepreneur via User Management. Alternatively, if the entrepreneur does not work through an accountant, the customer can take out a subscription themselves. Subsequently, the entrepreneur generates an environment code via iMUIS Online > Management > My data / Subscription / Connections tab Connections. An environment code is generated when you click on Connect with us as a partner (webwinkelfacturen). Copy this environment code. You will need it to establish the integration between the webshop and MUIS.

Option 2: The entrepreneur / accountant works with iMUIS Business Software (Windows)
In this situation, the entrepreneur must possess an iMUIS Online license, and iMUIS Online must be available on their own server. The entrepreneur generates an environment code via iMUIS Online > Management > My details / Subscription / Connections, Connections tab. An environment code is generated when you click on Connect with us as a partner (webshop invoices). Copy this environment code. You will need it to establish the connection between the webshop and MUIS.

If you use the MUIS orders option, you need to configure the following additional items in MUIS:
- Add item group 29 and enter the revenue account for this item group. New products are automatically added to this item group.
- Add webshop order type, because the orders forwarded to MUIS use this order type.
- Add the Shipping Costs shipping method to the MUIS shipping methods. Ensure that you set a default delivery condition and a preferred order method for the shipping method, and that you link the shipping method to the webshop order type.

4.Installation

After installation, check using this FAQ, whether the integration works.

The integration between Lightspeed eCom and imuis is installed via the Lightspeed App Store. First, the connection with your webshop is established and you authorize the integration to read data from your webshop.

Read more Installation .... Read less Installation ....

Two more steps need to be completed:
1. Establishing the connection with King/MUIS. This authorizes the integration to write transactions to your King/MUIS administration and to read information.
2. The configuration itself.

Before the integration can be used, the terms and conditions must first be accepted. The terms and conditions are based on the general ICT Terms and Conditions (industry organization) and the general GDPR guidelines.

Authentication King/MUIS
You click the red Connect button for MUIS Software. You establish the connection with MUIS by entering the environment code. You determined this environment code in the previous section.

Journal and debtors account
To process to King/MUIS financial entries, you can configure a debtors account and journal. To process to King/MUIS orders, a journal is not required.

Configure VAT rates and general ledger accounts
When configuring the VAT rates and general ledger accounts, a link is created between the VAT rates in webshop and the VAT codes and revenue accounts in King/MUIS. You can always make changes by clicking the blue 'Edit' button and selecting an option from the drop-down menus.

By default, the integration shows a fixed list of VAT rates per EU country. You can configure this fixed list. If you provide OSS, you can easily adjust the list with the correct VAT percentage per country. If you prefer to use the VAT rates from your webshop, you can adjust this in the contract settings. Intra-Community (ICP) and international deliveries
The Intra-Community supplies / ICP option is intended for business-to-business deliveries within the EU. These sales are invoiced with 0% VAT. A VAT number from the customer is required. The International option applies to deliveries outside the EU. For these sales, the integration expects 0% VAT; otherwise, the sales cannot be processed. Separate VAT codes and general ledger accounts can be configured for both ICP and international deliveries.

Once the VAT settings have been configured and saved, you will always see the selected VAT rates. If you want to start over, you can use the grey 'Remove VAT settings' button. Your current settings will then be deleted and you can begin again.

Configure payment methods
You can create a link here between the payment methods in the webshop and a fixed debtor in your King/MUIS administration. Orders or invoices with a payment method from the list will then always be posted to this debtor. In that case, no new debtors will be created.
Note: It is not possible to set fixed debtors for ICP orders or invoices. For an ICP order or invoice, a valid VAT number must be transmitted. Therefore, a debtor will always be created in King/MUIS for an ICP order or invoice.

5.Day-to-day: From Lightspeed

Processing schedule: This integration is a real-time integration. It is possible to process either the paid orders or the invoices from your Lightspeed eCom. Paid orders are processed as soon as the order in the webshop is set to paid. Invoices are processed as soon as they are created.

Credit invoices: When choosing invoices, the integration will also process the credit invoices. When processing paid orders, credit invoices are not included.


VAT numbers: For business orders within the EU, outside the Netherlands, a VAT number is mandatory. The integration performs a check on the validity of VAT numbers.

6.Day-to-day: To MUIS

Creating invoices / sales transactions
The orders or invoices from Lightspeed eCom are imported into King/MUIS as financial entries or orders. For each order or invoice, the VAT and general ledger account are provided as configured during the installation of the integration.

When creating entries / orders, new debtors and/or products may be added to King/MUIS.

Create debtors
When processing customer information, it is first checked whether the customer has been processed before. If so, this King/MUIS debtor is used as the debtor for the King/MUIS transaction. If the customer is not yet known, they are added to King/MUIS. Matching is based on email address. Please note: The integration only creates debtors. The integration does not modify debtors.

Create products
Product VAT: When creating new products - orders option - in King/MUIS, the integration uses the VAT percentage in the order line. This means that products in ICP and International orders will be created with 0% VAT in King/MUIS. After all, the integration has no other VAT percentage available for the product.
Item group: Products are placed in item group 29. This item group must be present in the MUIS administration.
Dummy products The integration does not work with dummy products because shipping costs and other costs are included as an amount in the header of the order.
Please note: Products are only created in King/MUIS. Products in King/MUIS are never modified.

Automatically sending invoices
The integration creates an order or financial entry in King/MUIS, not an invoice. Therefore, the integration cannot ensure that an invoice is automatically sent from King/MUIS.
