We currently offer two syncing modes: - **Unidirectional Sync:** Only one of your two platforms is the master for each attribute. With this option, only changes made in the master platform sync across. - **Bidirectional Sync:** There is no master platform, and changes made on both POS and eCommerce are synced across. You can have different attributes set to sync in different directions. For example, I can have titles syncing unidirectionally from POS to eCommerce, while descriptions sync unidirectionally from eComerce to POS, and prices syncing bi-directionally.![What is Attribute Sync and How to Configure It (11)](https://knowledgebase.skuiq.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/What%20is%20Attribute%20Sync%20and%20How%20to%20Configure%20It/What%20is%20Attribute%20Sync%20and%20How%20to%20Configure%20It%20(11).jpg?width=688&height=188&name=What%20is%20Attribute%20Sync%20and%20How%20to%20Configure%20It%20(11).jpg) ⚠️ The attributes available for sync will vary depending on your POS and eCommerce combination.
