Configuring Aloha Enterprise for ASV gift card integration
In Aloha Enterprise, you must create a loyalty service user and access level.
Configuring the Aloha Enterprise loyalty service user
You must create a service user account in the Aloha Enterprise environment that allows access to the Loyalty Web Services so your online ordering company can communicate with Aloha Enterprise. You add this user account and password to Online Ordering later in Linking Aloha Online Ordering to Aloha Enterprise and Linking Digital Ordering to Aloha Enterprise.
To configure the Aloha Enterprise loyalty service user:
- Log in to the Enterprise Support portal using a support-level account.
- Select Support & Training > Customer Configuration and search for the name of the company.
- Click Edit and locate the company's Aloha Enterprise URL.
- Navigate to the company's Aloha Enterprise URL and log in with a support-level account.
- Select System Setup > Company Setup and locate the customer's Aloha Loyalty company code appearing in green at the top right of the screen.
- Write down the Aloha Loyalty company code so you can later add the code in to Web Admin and the Digital Ordering portal.
Configuring the Aloha Enterprise access level
To configure the Aloha Enterprise access level:
-
In Aloha Enterprise, select System Setup > Security Class Setup and create an AlohaOnlineWebService security class that will be assigned to the WebService user account created in the next step.

-
Select System Setup > User Account Setup and create a WebService user account that is used by Aloha Online Ordering to communicate with Aloha Loyalty.

Type WebService in 'Last Name.'
-
Type a complex at least 12-digit password for the account.
Note: If the username and password already exist, create a new user in the format in the steps above.

Set the Security Class to the one you created earlier.
