You can connect your Ajera instance to Vantagepoint, to synchronize data between the two applications.

To set up integration with Ajera:

    You can also run the synchronization process manually at any time using the Synchronize with CRM menu option.
  2. Log on to Vantagepoint.
  3. In the Navigation pane, select Utilities > Integrations > Ajera.
  4. Select the Enable Ajera Synchronization check box to enable Vantagepoint to synchronize firm, project, and contact information with the Ajera application.

    When you select this option, the following updates occur:
