Version 28 (Initial Release)
-
We have added a new way to manage what syncs to users' mobile devices
-
Use the Sync Configuration Wizard tool in the Admin Portal to create Sync Profiles.
-
Sync Profiles function for syncing in a way similar to how User Profiles function of permissions
Sync Profiles only control what data syncs to the user’s mobile device.
The user must still have access to the data from their profile, permissions set(s), sharing rules, and any sync configuration record(s).
If these settings do not grant access to the object, field, or record, the data does not sync.
-
Assign the Sync Profile to the field worker’s User Profile. A user can only be assigned one Sync Profile.
This replaces the need to activate Sync V4 Config, as this option is included automatically in the Sync Profile.
You need to add the Mobile Sync Profile field to the User object’s page layout first. -
You can create multiple Sync Profiles to manage different types of users.
For example, you might have one profile for the mobile sales team to work with Quotes, another for maintenance workers to complete FX EAM Work Orders, a third for field technicians working Tickets, and a fourth for managers or supervisors who need access to all of the above while in the field.
One Sync Profile can work for multiple business segments, offices, or job crews when used in conjunction with Sync Configuration records.
