Automatic Member Card Creation
As standard functionality, LS Central does not automatically create a Membership Card but requires the user to manually create a Membership Card for a Member Contact before they can be attached to a sale on the POS. The Automatic Member Card Creation functionality allows for the automatic creation of an LSC Membership Card for a Member Contact when they are created on POS or Web Services.
How it works
With this enhancement, when a Member Contact is created on the POS in the Member Contact Panel (via the MemberContactCreate Web Service), the system will automatically create a Membership Card for that contact with the same ID as the contact. If a Membership Card with the same ID already exists, the system will not create a new card and will simply link the existing card to the Member Contact.
This is helpful in ensuring that all Members have a Membership Card created for them without the need for manual intervention. This also allows for the immediate use of the Member Contact for earning points and redeeming rewards.
Setup and Configuration
To enable the Automatic Member Card Creation functionality, the following setup is required:
- Navigate to the POS Power Tools Setup page via the Tell-Me search or from the Manual Setup menu in Business Central.
- In the POS Power Tools Setup page, locate the Auto Create Member Card on POS field under the Member Management section and set it to Yes.
