Flash Integration Setup US Agents

Setting up the connection and mapping brands

Parent Brand Entry

To access the Flash configuration in OASIS, Select manufacturers, then open the "Cooper" entry. This MUST be set up as a "Parent(shown)" entry.  Check the "Merge Brands" check box. If the specialization is not already set to "Flash", then select "Flash" in the drop down list - otherwise press the "Configure Specialization" link.

When the configure link is pressed the Flash configuration window will appear.

First, obtain the IP address or the name of the Flash server. Then create a "URL" using the server information as shown below:

• US agents: https://api.3rdparty.flashpro.cooperlighting.com/
• Canadian agents: https://api.ca.agent.flashpro.cooperlighting.com/

Child Brands

Users should create a Manufacturer entry for each child brand.  Select Cooper as the parent and click the "Merge Brands" check boxes for all brands that can be sent together in a single order. 

"Cooper Core" Manufacturers

The following Cooper manufacturers are part of the core Cooper lines. They should each have their own manufacturer entry in OASIS (or one entry with two brands mapped to it, as with Halo (HALO-Rec and Halo-Trac). These should have Cooper  set as the parent company and have the "Merge Brands" box checked.

Select "Cooper" in the field just below the URL (click the "..." button).  Then under Brands map ONLY ONE brand to the MFG entry.  Cooper has recently requested that each brand be mapped 1 for 1.  Do not select more than one brand to be mapped to that MFG entry in OASIS.  

Non "Cooper Core" Manufacturers

The manufacturers in the list below are not part of the core Cooper lines and must be quoted and ordered independently in OASIS.

• Select Cooper as the parent company
• DO NOT select "Merge Brands"

Notice in the screen shot "Ametrix" appears just below the URL and above the brands. This indicates to OASIS the Flash will treat the manufacturer independently.
