Checking your sales connections

The first screen to open when sales are missing, and what each status means.

Last updated September 2, 2026


The Connection Status Report lists every tribe and the state of its sales integration. When figures look wrong, this is the first place to look — a silently broken connection is far more common than a broken report.

The columns

Last syncWhen Gorilla Dash last talked to the system.

Last quoteWhen the most recent estimate arrived.
THE PATTERN THAT MATTERS
A recent sync with a stale last sale means the connection is healthy and the tribe genuinely has not sold anything. A stale sync means the connection itself has stopped. They need completely different conversations.

The statuses

  • Last sync successful — working.
  • Last sync failed — open it and read the error log.
  • Sync in progress — running now.
  • Last sync timed out — usually the point of sale being slow or unreachable.
  • No integration configured — nothing has been set up for this tribe.
  • Never synced — configured but has never successfully run.
  • No connection — no connection record at all.

Investigating one

Open a tribe for its connection status, its Error log and its credentials, where the API details can be revealed and copied. Clear Errors empties the log — do that after fixing something, so the next failure is obvious rather than buried.

Make it a routine

Scan this screen weekly and sort by last sync. A connection that broke a fortnight ago has already put a hole in the reports that everybody will argue about later — and re-syncing usually only reaches back so far, so the sooner it is caught the more of the data comes back.

If a sale is missing but the connection is healthy

Check that the order reached a status you have mapped as a sale. An unmapped status is not a failure — Gorilla Dash simply does not know it means sold.
