Connect lightspeed and MNP

Connecting lightspeed and MNP for a company operating both systems could enable the transfer of key business data between platforms. This could support more efficient operations by reducing manual data entry and improving data consistency. Such an integration could also help ensure that information remains up-to-date across both systems, supporting better decision making.

You can build this integration on the System2System platform. We design the connection between lightspeed and MNP around the way you work — not as an off-the-shelf connector, but to fit your systems.

Why connect lightspeed and MNP?

A company using both lightspeed and MNP could benefit from connecting the two systems to enable data to flow automatically between them. Without such a connection, staff may need to enter the same information in both systems, which increases the risk of errors and consumes valuable time. When records are maintained separately, there is a risk that data in one system becomes outdated or inconsistent with the other, leading to decisions based on incomplete or inaccurate information. This can affect everything from inventory management to customer service and financial reporting. If a connection were established, it could allow the exchange of data such as product details, sales transactions, inventory levels, customer information, and order statuses, provided these are supported by both systems. The specific data that can be exchanged and the direction of the data flow would depend on the capabilities and interfaces each system provides. Ultimately, what can actually be exchanged is determined by the APIs and data access options available for lightspeed and MNP, and must be assessed for each particular situation.

How System2System builds an integration

Connectors

We connect to each system through the interface it offers — an API, a database, a file exchange or a webhook — and handle authentication, rate limits and retries.

Mapping

Fields rarely line up one to one. We map and transform the data so both systems receive it in the shape they expect.

Workflow

We define what triggers an exchange, in which direction data flows and which system takes precedence when the two disagree.

Monitoring

Every exchange is logged. Failures are flagged and can be replayed, so nothing disappears without anyone noticing.

What can actually be exchanged?

That depends on what lightspeed and MNP make available through their APIs, on the licences and modules in use, and on the version each system runs. Which records are synchronised, in which direction and how often, is something we determine together before any work starts.

We are happy to look at your specific situation and tell you what is feasible — including when the answer is that it is not.
