Yellow Dog/Jonas API Overview

This document will provide an overview of the Yellow Dog Jonas API Integration 

Integration Approach 

This can be set up as a 2Way – Items are pulled from us, and sales are pushed or 1Way sales are pushed. NOTE: Jonas controls the flow of sales and item data 
  1. Sales – Pushed to Yellow Dog API

  3. Codes – Pulled into Yellow Dog 

Requirements for items to be pulled into Jonas

  1. Item must have Publish enabled 

  1. Item must be Active

Item Management Best Practices 

  1. Item edits/updates should be made in Yellow Dog and allowed to be picked up Jonas. Any edits made directly in Jonas will be overwritten the next time the integration updates. 
  2. F&B clients will need to map recipes in POS Item map to see ingredients deplete from inventory 

Limitations 

  1. Jonas controls the flow of items and sales data 
  2. Sales are provided once a day after the end of day has been initiated in Jonas 
  3. Discounts are not included with sales 
  4. Special Characters are not supported in item descriptions 
  5. Jonas only supports 1 barcode per item. If there is a UPC then the UPC will be provided, otherwise the item SKU will be provided.
