How can I resolve synchronization issues between flexfields and business objects?

Use the Synchronize Flexfields with Business Objects scheduled process. This process automatically runs each time the application is patched and updated to synchronize the flexfield changes. You can also manually submit it from the Scheduled Processes work area.

1. In the Scheduled Processes work area, schedule a new process and select Synchronize Flexfields with Business Objects.
2. Set the parameters and submit the process.

   Here are the parameters to set, depending on what you need to do.

   What You Need	Parameters to Select	What the Process Does
   Resync all flexfields	Flexfield Type: All Flexfields	Deploys all flexfields marked as deployed.
   Resync a single flexfield	Flexfield Type: Descriptive Flexfields or Key Flexfields Flexfield Code Note: You can find the flexfield code using setup tasks like Manage Descriptive Flexfields or Manage Key Flexfields. For example, the flexfield code for Values Set Values is FND_VS_VALUES_B.	Resyncs the specific flexfield identified by the code you entered.
   Force resync all flexfields	Flexfield Type: All Flexfields Enforce Synchronization	Overrides the deployment time stamp and resyncs all flexfields.
   Force resync a single flexfield	Flexfield Type: Descriptive Flexfields or Key Flexfields Flexfield Code Enforce Synchronization	Ignores any existing state or deployment history for a specific flexfield. It directly resyncs the business objects component of that flexfield with its latest definition, effectively resolving any discrepancies or outdated information.

After the process is completed, check for inconsistency errors in the log files.
