Connect lightspeed and Sherpaan

Connecting Lightspeed and Sherpaan for a company that uses both could allow for the transfer of relevant data such as sales, inventory, or order information between the two systems. This could support more accurate reporting, reduce manual data entry, and help maintain consistency across business operations.

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

Why connect lightspeed and Sherpaan?

A company operating both Lightspeed and Sherpaan could benefit from connecting these systems to enable data exchange between them. Such a connection could help reduce manual entry of information in both platforms, which often leads to duplicate records, inconsistencies, and errors. Without integration, staff might have to enter the same data, such as product details or order information, into each system separately. This manual process increases the risk that records in each system will drift apart over time, resulting in discrepancies that can affect stock levels, sales reporting, and customer service. Decisions based on outdated or mismatched data could impact operational efficiency and financial accuracy. If a connection were established, the kinds of data that could be exchanged between Lightspeed and Sherpaan would depend on the roles these systems play. For example, if one is used for point-of-sale and the other for order management, data such as sales transactions, inventory updates, customer details, and order statuses could be shared to keep both systems aligned. This could support more accurate reporting, improved inventory management, and a better customer experience. However, what can actually be exchanged depends on what each system exposes through its API and is determined per 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 Sherpaan 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.
