Connecting Shogo to Opera Cloud POS
Note: The Shogo integration with Opera Cloud via API is currently in beta. These steps mirror Oracle's official OHIP onboarding process. Shogo works alongside you and your Oracle contacts to complete the connection, so please reach out if anything is unclear.
Before the connection can be completed, the following must be in place:
Opera Cloud is installed and available to you.
You have test or actual sales data in Opera.
You have a Shogo account — sign up at https://app.shogo.io/signup.
Do you also need Simphony?
This guide is standalone — you can connect Opera Cloud on its own. If Simphony is integrated with Opera, Shogo can pull your high level food/restaurant sales through the Opera connection alone, which is enough for some customers.
If you want the fullest level of detail, we recommend connecting Opera and Simphony separately. Simphony gives Shogo item-level restaurant sales, which we post as an itemized invoice or journal entry, while Opera provides your hotel sales summarized by revenue category. Because a guest meal charged to a room shows up in both systems, we map Opera's restaurant/F&B category to a clearing account rather than a revenue account: Simphony recognizes the actual restaurant revenue, and the offsetting Opera posting clears against it — so each sale is counted once while both entries still balance. If you don't need item-level detail, connecting Opera alone may be all you need — it posts your restaurant sales at the category level.
Using Opera Legacy/On-Premise?
Please see this guide for a file-based integration that uses the Trial Balance Report from Opera via Email of SFTP.
