Common questions

Can you connect Lightspeed to Stockpilot?

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

Does Stockpilot need a complete address, and what if it is wrong?

Stockpilot needs a full delivery address to make a label. If the country and postcode do not match up, that shipment is held and shows in the log, rather than a wrong label coming out.

Can I choose the carrier in Stockpilot myself?

Yes. Which carrier and shipping method Stockpilot uses you set there; Schakel only hands the shipment over complete.

What happens on a refund or partial cancellation in Lightspeed?

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

What does connecting Lightspeed and Stockpilot 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 Stockpilot?

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 if Lightspeed or Stockpilot 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.

How do I connect Lightspeed to Stockpilot?

You give Schakel access to Lightspeed and Stockpilot once and pick what should travel. We set it up together with you, so no technical knowledge is needed, and after that it runs by itself.
