Note: When you purchased FH Inspector, a FIREHOUSE Software support person sent you an email containing a license key and other information. You will need this license key when specifying synchronization parameters below.

   The FIREHOUSE Software Cloud Synchronization Utility dialog box appears.

   

2. Select or clear Synchronize Occupancies and Synchronize Hydrants to indicate which records you want to push from the FIREHOUSE Software database to the FIREHOUSE Software Cloud.

3. (Optional) In Limit Push to Shift, enter the name of the shift for the data you want push to the FIREHOUSE Software Cloud.

   Note: If you do not specify a shift, data for all the shifts are pushed to the FIREHOUSE Software Cloud.

4. (Optional) In Limit Push to Unit/Company, enter the name of the unit/company for the data you want to pull down from the FIREHOUSE Software Cloud.
