Integration Details - Step by Step

Configuring Integration Settings

After connecting Foodics to Wafeq, you need to configure the integration settings for proper data alignment.

Step 1: Map Branches

Click on Configure in your Wafeq account in the Foodics integration section.

To map branches, you have two options:

Manually Map Branches: Select each branch in Foodics and match it with the corresponding branch in Wafeq.

Auto-Generate Branches: If you have not set up branches in Wafeq, use the Auto-Generate option. This will create and map branches in Wafeq based on your Foodics data.



Step 2: Map Tax Rates

• Next, align the tax rates from Foodics with those in Wafeq.

• If a required tax rate is not available in Wafeq, follow these sub-steps:

1. Navigate to Taxes Rates in Wafeq.
2. Click on Create a Tax Rate.
3. Enter the tax rate details as they appear in Foodics.
4. Save the new tax rate.

• Return to the integration configuration page and select the newly created tax rate from the dropdown menu for the corresponding Foodics tax rate.

Step 3: Map Payment Methods

• In the integration settings, map the payment methods used in Foodics to the relevant accounts in Wafeq.

• For cash-like payment methods, associate them with a bank or cash account in Wafeq.

Other Payment Methods

• For non-cash payment methods (like gift cards), map them to the appropriate liability accounts.
• Use the Auto-Generate feature if needed to create new accounts in Wafeq for unmatched payment methods.

Step 4: Sales from Foodics

Decide which account in Wafeq will record sales from Foodics.

It's recommended to create a new account in Wafeq specifically for Foodics sales, such as Sales from Foodics, for easy identification and tracking.

Step 5: Configure Refund Settings

• Choose the Wafeq account where refunds processed in Foodics will be recorded.

• You might want to set up a dedicated account for refunds to keep track of these transactions separately.

Step 6: Configure Charges and Rounding

Charges from Foodics: Select an account in Wafeq where charges from Foodics (like delivery fees) will be booked.

This helps in segregating operational expenses from regular sales.

Rounding: Determine the account in Wafeq to record rounding differences that occur in Foodics.

Rounding differences are minor but necessary for accurate accounting.



Step 7: Configure Inventory Tracking

• Determine how to track inventory value changes in Wafeq as a result of Foodics transactions.

• The integration focuses on updating the total inventory value based on overall value changes from Foodics.

• For detailed item-wise inventory data, refer to Foodics as the primary source.

Step 8: Configure Tips, Discounts and coupons

• Choose appropriate Wafeq accounts to record tips, applying them to liability accounts.

• Select accounts for discounts and coupons offered to customers, aiding in promotional expense tracking.

Performing Data Synchronization

Once the mapping is complete, the next step is to sync data from Foodics to Wafeq.

Step 1: Initiate Sync

• Sync page will open in Wafeq.
• Select a date range for the data you wish to sync.

• Choose the types of data to sync. Options include sales, inventory transactions, order transactions, and more.

• You can also enable Auto Sync for daily automatic synchronization of data.

• Click Sync to start the synchronization process.

• Once the sync is complete, all selected data will be updated in your Wafeq account.

Resyncing Data

In case of configuration errors, delete and resync the desired data.
