    Refreshing the Reporting Database


    Article summary

    The Steelhead Reporting database automatically loads new data overnight, between 12-4AM EST.

    In situations where more current data is required, it is possible to manually refresh the database to pull in new production data.


    Manually Refreshing the Reporting Database:

    1. Check the date of the current reporting data.
