How to Download and Activate the Latchel Data Sync
It’s important to follow these steps in sequence:
- Follow the steps in this customer guide to download the Latchel Data Sync Chrome extension and log in.
- Once signed into the extension successfully, you will see text on the extension drop-down that states, “Logged in as PM Company Name”.
- Create a fake work order in your Property Management Software (PMS) and assign this fake work order to the Team Latchel user.
- Please be sure to assign Team Latchel as a user, not a service provider.
- Sign out of the Latchel Data Sync extension, and then sign back in.
- Sign out of your property management software and then sign back in.
- Navigate back to your property management software dashboard where you should see a floating Latchel logo at the top right. Click on the logo and select Sync All Data.
- It’s also a best practice to automate the sync using one of the following options:
- Hourly Sync: When hourly sync is toggled on, the sync will initiate randomly at some point within the first 20 minutes of every hour.
- Daily Sync: When daily sync is toggled on, the sync will initiate randomly within the first 20 minutes of the specified hour of the user’s time zone.
- Once the sync has been initialized, you can complete or close the test work order in your property management software (PMS).
