    The customer is recorded as a contact in fENNA or reused by email, so no duplicate relation appears.

  3. VAT

Both sides

What each side expects

Lightspeed and fENNA do not describe the world the same way. This is what has to line up.

Common questions

Can you connect Lightspeed to fENNA?

Yes. Schakel connects through the official APIs of Lightspeed and fENNA, so you install nothing on your own server and nothing travels outside those two parties.

Which VAT rate do my sales get in fENNA?

The rate is set per line: 21%, 9% or 0%. Sales to Belgium and other EU countries get the rate of the destination country, ready for your OSS return.

Are commission and fees booked separately in fENNA?

Yes. Commission, shipping and other fee types each land on their own ledger account in fENNA, rather than in one lump sum, so your margin stays readable.

What happens on a refund or partial cancellation in Lightspeed?

It comes across, so fENNA matches what was actually settled and you correct nothing by hand.

What does connecting Lightspeed and fENNA cost?

You start free and only pay once the connector is really running. After that the same tiers apply as for any other connector, based on how much runs through it each month.

How often does Lightspeed sync with fENNA?

That depends on your tier: hourly on the free tier up to real time on the unlimited tier. You can always start a sync yourself as well.

What happens to a return or refund in fENNA?

A return becomes a credit invoice in fENNA for the amount actually refunded, not for the whole order, so nothing needs correcting afterwards.

What if Lightspeed or fENNA is briefly unavailable?

Nothing gets lost. Schakel retries later and the log shows exactly what happened, so at most you notice something coming through a little later.
