Hello Kiruthiga,

Can you please refer to our documentation articles and make sure that you have properly configured the SalesForce connector and the synchronization:

http://docs.sitefinity.com/synchronize-sitefinity-with-salesforce

What I would also suggest to try is to remove all scheduled tasks and test again. This way we can see if the issue is caused by a problem with a sync scheduled task.

Please make a backup of the project and database prior deleting the tasks.

In order to remove the scheduled tasks, please first make a backup of your project files and database and then please open the the sf_schedule_tasks table in the database. You will see all the tasks in it. Just delete the entire data in this table, then recycle the application and try again.

Before you test the synchronization, please delete the error logs under the ~/App_Data/Sitefinity/Logs folder and then send me the files generated under this folder after you test the synchronization. There might be some additional information about the issue in case there are problems with the synchronization.
