# **FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)**

- **What are the parameters of Clio's contact synchronization for new and existing contacts beyond "[near] real time"? Why is it sometimes instantaneous and why does it sometimes even take overnight?**
  - The clio integration attempts to process all contacts in near real-time.  However, a nightly cleanup job is run to handle any that might have been missed during the day.There are a variety of reasons why an individual contact might not be processed immediately, but it should not be the norm.If you and the customer are able to provide some examples of contacts that should have been processed immediately, but weren’t, you can submit a zendesk ticket and someone can look into it to see if there is an identifiable issue.
- **Why there is a contact in Clio app, with all this information (phone number, last name and firts name) and is not synced in Kenect app?**
  - Please, verify the contact is not marked as`Do Not Text` in Clio.
- **Why I dont see the opption to set up the payments automatic messages**
  - Verify the merchant account is set up
