Steps

Interest Generation:


Interest in Using the Taproom POS Integration Application:
​
​

  • Interest can be shown throughout the customer lifecycle and sales cycle. This could be initiated by the customer during conversations with Encompass, implementations, sales, or even when supporting the customer.
    ​
    ​

  • Regardless of where the interest is generated, We should be advising customers to begin the setup process/discussions with the implementation team through the Project Request(1) dashboard or by submitting a task to the implementation team.

POS Automation Setup Process:
​
​

All customers should get started using the Get Connected dashboard to create a task with our Handoff team to begin the API automation setup.

Application Setup Process:
​
​

Existing customers:
​
​

  • Users can request for Encompass to assist in trainings and setup to begin using the POS Integration. This is a paid implementation service and Encompass will assist in walking the user through the setup process. This will require a SOW.


New customers:
​
​

  • For new customers coming on board to Encompass, this will be included in the implementation process if they would like to go live with this automation.

Support Process:
​
​

Support is not to complete any setups for the POS Integration. There are 2 main ways support will support this integration.
​
​

Supporting Invoicing Errors:
​
​

Common questions:
​
​

  • Why is it coming over with this number of units?
    ​
    ​

  • Why is it coming through with this price?
    ​
    ​

  • Why does Encompass not match my POS system?
    ​
    ​

  • Reference Help Resources Versions - 839 for troubleshooting steps
    ​
    ​

Supporting Questions about New Product Translation Setup:
​
​

Common questions:
​
​

  • How do I add a new product to the POS Invoice?
    ​
    ​

  • Why am I seeing a generic POS Product on the invoice?
    ​
    ​

  • Reference Help Resources Versions - 838 for fields to setup a product translation
    ​
    ​

If support receives questions outside of the 2 support topics above, they should direct the task to the implementation team to continue conversations with the customer.
