Integrating Techno Data Systems
In the dashboard, go to Apps → Integrations.
Open Marketplace, search for Techno Data Systems, and select the integration.
Click Install in the upper-right corner.
Once the integration has been installed, open the Auth tab.
Click Create to add your first register.
Enter the following information:
Name
Terminal ID
Business profile
Click Create. A personal access token will appear.
Copy the personal access token and store it securely before closing the window. The token is shown only once and cannot be viewed again later.
To create a register for another location, click Add register and repeat the process. Each location requires its own register and personal access token.
Copy your account secret from Integrations → Account secret.
Contact your Techno Data Systems representative and securely provide them with the personal access token and account secret. They will use these credentials to complete the integration.
Configuring promotions and benefits
Go to settings then ‘custom attributes’ and select the ‘promotion’ custom attribute type using the button in the top right corner.
Select ‘+ Add attribute’ and choose the type ‘text’ and call this attribute ‘external_identifier’.
Now you can configure the deal via the Technodatasystems dashboard.
Create a new promotion under ‘loyalty’ then ‘promotions & vouchers’. Select your promotion and go to the ‘custom attributes’ page to input the deal name from Technodatasystems and press ‘submit’ to link it.
All rewards and benefits in the TDS integration run via ‘Promotions & Vouchers’. If you would like to use rewards, you will need to create an automation that sends a voucher after a reward has been received. See here to automations page
Bugs
Registration with the Technodatasystems integration
You create a registration form, where the license plate must also be entered as a required field. The license plate should be entered in the system in capital letters without punctuation marks (For instance: ABC12D)
Then, via an automation, an identifier is created from the license plate.
Once this is done, you automatically collect points after checkout (when you drive through the car wash with that license plate)
Re-enrollment in the automations must be enabled (the “create identifier from license plate” automation must be active)
An attribute must be created in the dashboard: licence_plate (Go to settings -> custom attributes -> create a new attribute called licence_plate)
Redeeming rewards with Technodatasystems
For each reward, you will need to set up:
A voucher
An automated email
An automation
First, create your rewards in the dashboard and set them to be redeemable in advance by configuring the redemption timing to 0 days, 0 minutes, and 0 seconds.
Rewards must then be redeemed through the contacts portal.
When a reward is redeemed, an automation should trigger an email containing a voucher. This voucher includes a QR code that can be scanned at checkout at the register.
You must also create the same action in TDS.
Next, in Leat go to ‘Settings’ → ‘Custom attributes’ and select the ‘promotion’ custom attribute type. Create a new text attribute named external_identifier.
After that, configure the voucher code in Leat by entering the code created in TDS into the external_identifier field.
Make sure re-enrollment is enabled for each automation.
The wash card
First, go to the dashboard and create the attributes prepaidbalancetotalwash and cardnumbertotalwash.
TDS will send this information into the platform.
Next, go to ‘Automations’ and create an automation that converts cardnumbertotalwash into an identifier. Set the trigger to cardnumbertotalwash is changed.
Within this automation, make sure the “default” toggle is enabled.
You must also enable re-enrollment for this automation.
Once this is set up, create an email that includes the “add to wallet” button.
Finally, make sure the wallet pass includes the attribute prepaidbalancetotalwash.
