Adding Clients to Workflow
We’ve come across a few issues with getting clients added to Workflow so I thought I’d make sure everyone has this information. When you create a new client in Axcess the following items must be completed before they will show up to import into Workflow:
- Status should be Active Client.
- Office, the Location must be chosen.
- Entity Type.
- Fiscal Year End Month.
The sync between Axcess and Workflow runs at 7:00 am. 11:00 am, 3:00 pm, 7:00 pm and 11:00 pm every day. The sync has been taking approximately 1 hour 45 minutes each time it runs. Once it has finished running any clients that were created since the last sync can be imported.
To import a client into workflow:
- Log into Workflow
- Click the gear icon at the top right
- Scroll down to the bottom and click CCH Integration
- On the Scheduler tab, click scheduler logs and make sure there is not currently a sync running. The most recent one must show completed.
- Click Data Management at the top of the screen.
- Click Both (Not Linked & Excluded)
- Click Search. This search can take as long as 6 minutes to run. If it has run longer than 6 minutes the sync is stuck and you should close the window and start over.
- Once the search has completed you can click any column heading to sort by that colum.
- Scroll through the list and check the box to select the client you want to add.
- Click Import
- Another screen will come up with a list of any clients you have selected to import. If there is anything missing/wrong with a client it will be highlighted in yellow and must be corrected before importing. You can do this by selecting the client and choosing update details.
- Once all clients are updated, click import client
- The window will then show if the import was successful or not.
