# Plan Sync

### ⚙️ How Plan Sync Works

We sync your plan every time we detect a change. You can also sync yourself by clicking the triple dot and clicking on sync.&#x20;

Drivepoint Plan Sync validates every Excel plan during ingestion to ensure your model structure matches Drivepoint’s schema. The process includes:

1. **SharePoint → Drivepoint**: Your workbook is synced from your SharePoint drive using Microsoft Graph.
2. **Validation Checks**: We verify required tabs, data layout, and company matching.
3. **Data Warehouse Upload**: Once validated, the file is processed and loaded into your connected BigQuery dataset.
4. **Sync Result**: Success or error messages are logged and surfaced in the Plan Info panel.

If validation fails, Drivepoint provides:

* A short **hover message** directly on the plan.
* An expanded **Plan Info explanation** with detailed fix steps via the tripledot.

### 🪄 Tips for Successful Plan Syncs

✅ **Before syncing:**

* Close all open Excel sessions for that file.
* Make sure your plan includes all required tabs.
* Verify the **Company** name on the *Settings* tab matches your Drivepoint org.

🚀 **If you see repeated sync failures:**

1. Click the **⋮ (triple-dot)** next to the plan name.
2. Select **Plan Info** for error details.
3. Follow the suggested fix steps.
4. If needed, message Drivepoint Customer Success with the **timestamp, plan name, and file link**.
