Setting up the Oracle OPERA integration

Oracle OPERA is a cloud-based property management system focused on helping hotels meet the needs of their guests. Fully scalable and mobile-enabled, OPERA improves operating efficiency and enhances employee productivity.

Integrating with OPERA allows the Lightspeed POS to connect with OPERA Cloud PMS or OPERA 5, enabling the hotel's restaurant staff to charge food and drinks to the appropriate room.

Setting up OPERA

To set up OPERA, you will need to create a new payment method in Back Office and then contact Lightspeed Support to finish setting up the integration.

  1. Log in to the Back Office with your Lightspeed credentials.
  2. From the navigation menu, go to Configuration > Settings > Payment methods.
  3. Click Add a payment method method.
  4. Fill in the following information:
    • Payment method type: Charge to room.
    • Code: IKPMS.
    • Name: Opera.
    • Check off Send every receipt.
    • Server address: Your POS device's IP address.
