Synchronization

Introduction

The Synchronization page is where you run SR-BRIDGE manually.

Use this page after you finish the configuration steps so you can choose what data to process and start the run from the desktop app.

Overview

This page has three main parts:

  • A Select list to choose the sync action
  • A Run button to start the process
  • A Status area to show the latest result and run history

When the page first opens, the status may show that the application is waiting for the first execution.

Synchronization options list

Run

Click Run after you select the action.

This starts the synchronization using the selected option.

Status

The Status area shows the current state of the synchronization page.

It helps you see whether the app is waiting, running, or showing the last result.

Status: Never run

This message means the selected synchronization has not been started yet.

Last Run

This field shows the date and time of the most recent execution, if one exists.

When nothing has run yet, it may show a blank value.

Step-by-step setup

  1. Open the SR-BRIDGE desktop app.
  2. Go to Synchronization in the left menu.
  3. Open the Select list.
  4. Choose the synchronization action you want to run.
  5. Review the selected option carefully.
  6. Click Run.
  7. Watch the Status area for the current result.
  8. Check Last Run after the process completes.

How to confirm the run

After you click Run, confirm that:

  • The correct option was selected
  • The status area updates
  • The last run time appears after the process finishes

If you selected the wrong action, stop and choose the correct one before running again.

Notes and Tips

  • Make sure configuration is completed before you start synchronization.
  • Choose only the action you actually need for the current run.
  • If you are not sure which option to use, confirm it with your administrator before running.
  • Check the status area after every run so you know whether the process started correctly.
  • Use the run history and last run time to confirm what happened most recently.

Troubleshooting

The page shows "Never run"

This means the selected sync option has not been executed yet.

The wrong sync action was selected

Open the Select list again and choose the correct option before clicking Run.

Nothing seems to happen after clicking Run

Check that:

  • The correct option is selected
  • The app is not waiting for another action
  • The status area is updating

The result does not match what you expected

Review the selected option carefully. Some actions pull master data, some pull budget data, and some push timesheet data.
