+If new data is ingested with a slight delay, it might not be immediately available when the {transform} runs. To prevent missing documents, you can use the `delay` parameter in the `sync` configuration. This shifts the search window backward, ensuring that late-arriving data is included before a checkpoint processes it. Adjusting this value based on your data ingestion patterns can help ensure completeness.

 then it waits for the next timer.

+* You need to account for late-arriving data.
++
+In some cases, data might not be immediately available when a {transform} runs, leading to missing records in the destination index. This can happen due to ingestion delays, where documents take a few seconds or minutes to become searchable after being indexed.
+To handle this, the `delay` parameter in the {transform}'s sync configuration allows you to postpone processing new data. Instead of always querying the most recent records, the {transform} will skip a short period of time (e.g., 60 seconds) to ensure all relevant data has arrived before processing.
++
+For example, if a {transform} runs every 5 minutes, it usually processes data from 5 minutes ago up to the current time. However, if you set `delay` to 60 seconds, the {transform} will instead process data from 6 minutes ago up to 1 minute ago, making sure that any documents that arrived late are included.
+By adjusting the `delay` parameter, you can improve the accuracy of transformed data while still maintaining near real-time results.
