Daily takings recorded on Lightspeed POS registers post into Sage 300 in the amount of detail finance actually needs, so a chain's ledger stops depending on somebody reading a report each evening.
A Lightspeed POS register produces a transaction for every sale, Sage 300 needs a set of accounting entries, and the gap between those two things is where somebody's evening goes. Post everything and the ledger fills with thousands of lines nobody will read. Post a daily total and the first question about a tender type has no answer. Connecting Sage 300 and Lightspeed POS settles that question deliberately, aggregating on the way through by store, day and tender, so the ledger receives entries it can use while the underlying detail stays available.

Takings are aggregated on the way into Sage 300 by store, day and tender type, so the ledger receives entries at the level finance asked for rather than every till transaction.
Summarising for the ledger does not throw the underlying Lightspeed POS transactions away, so a question about one tender type on one day can still be answered weeks afterwards.
Prices published from Sage 300 reach each Lightspeed POS location together, so two shops in one chain are not selling the same item at two different figures today.
Alumio connects to Sage 300 through its available API, as it would any reachable system, so the takings route is built on the interface the finance system already presents.
A trading day ends and Alumio aggregates that store's Lightspeed POS transactions into Sage 300 entries by tender type, so the ledger is current next morning without anybody transcribing a register report by hand.
Refunds taken at the till carry through with their sign, so the day's entry in Sage 300 is net takings rather than a gross figure that somebody has to adjust once the returns are noticed during a later stock check.
A price revised in Sage 300 publishes to every Lightspeed POS location before trading opens, so counter staff are not left explaining why the shop down the road charges something different for exactly the same item.
Alumio sits between sales channels and fulfillment systems as a governed integration backbone. Orders are routed, transformed, and validated, while status updates return to every channel.
Authenticate your systems using Alumio's pre-built connectors. Choose from 200+ connector packages in the marketplace, plus unlimited custom integrations.
Define how data fields map between systems in a visual interface. Adjust formats, enrich records, and apply business logic, no custom code required.
Configure flows to run in real time on events, on a schedule, or both. Reduce manual data entry and let Alumio handle movement and transformation between systems.
Once your first integration is live, adding your ERP, PIM, WMS, or CRM connects to the same hub. Existing flows keep running. No rebuilding from scratch.
An inventory counting app is a frequent addition, because a chain's stocktake has to reconcile against both the till and the ledger, and doing that on paper is how a discrepancy becomes permanent. Alumio holds those connections centrally and reuses the store mapping already configured, so a count lands against the same location as the takings it is supposed to explain.
Yes, and aggregation is the part that decides whether it is useful. Alumio can group Lightspeed POS transactions by store, day and tender type before they reach Sage 300, so what posts is an accounting entry rather than a stream of sales. Prices and product data travel the other way on a schedule you control, which keeps repeated lookups off the finance system.
No, this is configured rather than coded. Store codes, tender types and the Sage 300 accounts each one posts to are set up once in a form and reused for every location, which is what stops a fourth shop becoming a fourth project. Where a rounding or till float rule needs logic that configuration cannot express, the Code Transformer carries that calculation.
By store, day and tender type is the usual answer, and it is worth settling before anything is built. A ledger gains nothing from one entry per sale, and a single daily total cannot answer the first question anybody asks, which is card against cash. Alumio aggregates in the flow, so how much detail arrives becomes a configured decision rather than a consequence of how the till happens to export.
Two shops selling one item at different prices is the failure customers notice first, and it starts with a price update that reached some registers and not others. Alumio monitors each publish live and records which locations confirmed it, so a register that did not take the change alerts immediately with the store, the item and the reason it was refused. Retries run automatically where configured, so no location is quietly left on yesterday's price.
