Step 5:  Engage the Sync

If you are syncing with other devices e.g. computers, Stockhand and/or hardware, please call Outcross Systems on 1800 799 107 to have the sync engaged on your new computer.

To reduce the time it takes to do a first sync on the device, it is recommended to use a fresh Backup and no other syncs performed on other devices until the first sync is completed on the new device.

It might appear as if you are able to sync.  This is because you have restored from a working device.  Data is not automatically sent to Agrisphere without the sync being manually engaged by a Support Team Member at Outcross Systems.

Please ensure that you call to get your data correctly synced and aligned to prevent any data issues in the future.
