When you work with data synchronization between systems, you sometimes run into records that fail to synchronize. Once you have fixed the underlying problem, you need a way to tell the system to try again. In Business Central you do this by resetting the skip synchronization status on the affected records.
When a record is marked as skipped, the synchronization process ignores it. After you resolve the issue that caused the failure, you reset the skip status so the record is included in the next synchronization run.
How to reset the skip synchronization status in Business Central
The process is straightforward. Open the list of synchronization records and mark the lines you want to reset. You can select a single line or several lines at once, depending on how many records need to be reset.
With the lines selected, go to the Actions menu and choose the option to reset the skip synchronization status for the selected records. This clears the skip flag on those records.
Once the data is no longer marked as skipped, it is ready to be processed. The next time you run the synchronization, those records are included and will synchronize as expected.
Q&A
What does it mean when a record is marked as skipped in synchronization?
It means the synchronization process ignores that record. This usually happens when a record failed to synchronize because of an underlying problem.
How do I make a skipped record synchronize again?
First fix the problem that caused the synchronization to fail. Then mark the affected lines, go to the Actions menu, and reset the skip synchronization status for the selected records. The records are included in the next synchronization run.
Can I reset the skip status on more than one record at a time?
Yes. You can select a single line or several lines at once and reset them together.
