Enlighten POS Setup

For more information on the functionality of the Enlighten POS, please visit: Enlighten Overview 

 

1. Log into Enlighten 

• Log into your Enlighten POS
• Review the documentation here: Enlighten Overview 
• Confirm that you have products inside your account either manually or through the use of any of our POS integrations.

 

2. Menu Feeds

Use an existing menu feed configured by Enlighten or create a new one. If needed, create additional feed groups and map them to the appropriate filter criteria.

Once your feed groups are all configured:

• Assign the Leafly Category applicable to each group of products.
• If no category is specified, you can still configure this in your Leafly Integration Settings. Note: be aware that modifying any existing menu feeds beyond the leafly category can result in undesired behavior of your Enlighten TV Menus.

 

3. Enlighten Integration Settings

Under Integration Settings, add a new integration: Leafly Menu Push.

Once you have entered the API Key you have generated from the Leafly Setup Steps:

• Choose the menu feed you wish to power your Leafly Menus
• Select Verify
• Once the verification succeeds, you can save.

 

 

Integration Configuration and Settings

Once you have successfully synced your Enlighten POS menu with Leafly, you can configure the integration and override menu data in Leafly Biz.

These changes will persist in your Leafly menu unless you disconnect and reconnect your POS and resync your POS menu data.

With Enlighten POS, you have the following options: 

• Default Item Status
• Category Mapping
• Inventory Availability Rules
• Inventory Exclusion Rules
• Cannabinoid Calculation

Default Item Status

Automatically set new and restocked items to either active or inactive by default. Items automatically set to an inactive status must be manually set to active before being visible on online menus.

• Items set to “Active”: these items will show up on all online menus and be set to “Available for Pick-Up/Delivery” if your store participates in any of Leafly’s order ahead programs.
• Items set to “Inactive”: these items will be hidden from all online menus. They will no longer be “Available for Pick-Up/Delivery” if your store participates in any of Leafly’s order ahead programs.

 

Category Mapping

Related article: Mapping your categories on Leafly

We currently support the following categories → Accessory, Seeds, Clone, Flower, Edible, PreRoll, Concentrate, Cartridge, Topical, and Other.

If your POS assigned category does not align with a predefined Leafly category, it will be assigned a category of Other by default. You can remap your POS Category to the Leafly category. 

 

 

Inventory Availability Rules

Related article: Setting inventory thresholds

On the POS Settings page, you can set inventory thresholds at both the Global and Category levels. If a threshold is defined, items with inventory counts under the thresholds set will be automatically hidden from your online menus. By default, the threshold is set to 1. 

 

Inventory Exclusion Rules
