Data Sync Overview
✤ Goal : Data should be entered only once at any point
in the connection, controlled by the annual conference,
and dispersed to all agencies as needed.
✤ Process: Annual conferences sync data to GCFA and
GCFA sync data out to general agencies via scheduled
jobs. Updates made in annual conference databases
can be available across the connection overnight.
Improved Process
✤ New team members bring additional technical
expertise to assist annual conferences in data mapping
and data verification
✤ Staff Centerprise training to better support annual
conferences
✤ Secure FTP server
✤ Upgrade to Centerprise 6
Benefits of Data Sync
✤ Quicker updates for GCFA web apps and agency
programs such as Find-a-Church
✤ Improved and more complete data for both the
general agencies and annual conferences
✤ Provides data backup for annual conference data
✤ Development of Ezra BAC module will further
reduce annual conference reporting requirements
