When FYI is integrated with CCH Central, your Clients, Client Contacts, Jobs and Users are imported and continuously synchronised with FYI. Changes made in CCH Central are reflected in FYI.
The sync from CCH Central to FYI happens every 15 minutes.
This ensures that CCH Central continues to be your single source of truth for client information.
