Reading sync history

In this article

When somebody asks why an invoice reached the accounts twice, or not at all, this is where the answer is.

  • How to narrow the list and open a run
  • The four statuses, and which of them need opening
  • Why each table also has its own smaller log
  • How far back it goes, and what you cannot clear

01 · Why

Why do we have this?

It is the audit trail. When somebody asks why an invoice reached the accounts twice, or not at all, this is where the answer is.

02 · How

Read the history

  1. Open Sync Status on the connection.
  2. Use All entities and All statuses to narrow the list.
  3. Click any row to expand it and see per-record detail.

03 · Expected result

Each row shows the time, the direction, the record type, how many were processed, how many failed, how long it took, and a status.

StatusWhat it means
CompletedEverything went through.
PartialSome of it did not. Expand the row.
FailedNothing went through.
RunningStill going.

04 · Notes

Expand anything that is not Completed

The Failed column is not dependable — see Why a record did not reach your accounting system.

Each table has its own smaller log

The Integration Logs tab on a connected table shows just that table's activity, in plainer language — for example Sync completed — Customer · 29 records synced in 4s. It also has date filters.

05 · FAQ

Common questions

How far back does it go?

Everything on that connection. Ours held runs from two months earlier.

Can I get rid of old entries?

No.

A run says Partial with 0 failed. What does that mean?

Expand it. It usually means records were rejected without being counted.
