## Viewing the synchronisation status

As of v2.0.0, your Open mSupply server actually syncs to two central servers! The `Push V6` and `Pull V6` steps transfer data to and from the Open mSupply central server, which you can read more about [here](../../introduction/central). The `Push`, `Pull Central` and `Pull Remote` steps are syncing with an mSupply central server.

## Manual synchronisation

On this (sync) screen you are also able to initiate synchronisation immediately rather than wait for the scheduled time ( remember, the sync interval is configured in the Admin > Synchronisation section, see the [Administration](/docs/administration/synchronisation/) page for details ).

To start sync manually, simply click the `Sync now!` button. When you do, you'll see that the button changes to a spinner and the progress is indicated with the stepper icons which change to show which step is currently active. For example, in the image below you'll see that `Pull remote` is active.

Here is the complete process in action, with the steps slowed down. You'll notice when you try this that the sync is usually very quick, though it depends on how many items you have to sync:

At the top right of the `Sync` page the current server URL is shown, along with a QR code. The code contains the server URL and can be used to easily configure [mSupply Cold Chain](http://127.0.0.1:1111/coldchain/introduction/) when synchronising with Open mSupply. If you are having trouble scanning the code, you can click (or press, if using a tablet) the code to display a larger version.
