Reliability
Monitoring, failure handling and manual replay
Synchron focuses on operational visibility after the sale: logs, error context, monitoring and replay where supported. Read about trust and reliability.
Failure handling
- Configured transfers are monitored with workflow logs and error context so teams can see which record failed and why.
- Failures commonly need the underlying issue corrected first, such as credentials, permissions, product matching, order state, carrier data or a marketplace API response.
- Where the workflow supports it, corrected transfers can be replayed or manually re-run instead of starting the whole process from scratch.
Manual replay
- Manual import is useful during onboarding, backfills, support checks and controlled reprocessing of specific records.
- Replay still depends on correcting the underlying issue first, such as product matching, credentials, permissions or invalid source data.
