Filtering Logs
All log grids support filtering:
- Date range: Filter by Date Created

Use the Filters button to access all filter options.
Common Workflows
Find Failed Syncs
- Open the relevant log grid (Invoice, Credit Memo, or Customer)
- Filter by Success = No
- Review error messages
- Take corrective action based on error type
Investigate Specific Invoice
- Go to Synchronisation Logs → Invoice
- Search for the order or invoice number
- Review all sync attempts for that invoice
- Check messages for success or errors
Monitor Daily Sync Activity
- Open any log grid
- Filter by Date Created = Today

Debug API Issues
- Filter logs for Success = No
- Look for patterns in error messages
- Common issues:
- Authentication failures → Check OAuth connection
- Timeout errors → Network or server issues
- Validation errors → Missing required data
Error Resolution
Authentication Errors

Log Retention
Logs are stored indefinitely by default. Consider periodic cleanup for performance:
- Very old logs can be safely removed
- Keep at least 90 days for troubleshooting
- Export important data before cleanup
