Define Mobile Object Synchronization Data

Explanation

This activity is used to define the objects that should be synchronized with the mobile device. With IFS Mobile Work Order, not all objects are transferred from a site to the mobile user. Therefore, it is necessary to define which objects should be transferred during synchronization, based on the criteria selected.

Note: If all Equipment Objects registered in IFS Apps are required to be synchronized then the configuration to "Sync all Objects" should be set in the Cloud Configuration and the Mobile Object Synchronization Data does not need to be set-up.

Prerequisites

• The User should be defined and set as a mobile user.
• The object or object structure should be defined.

System Effects

• The objects which are to be transferred to the mobile device during synchronization are defined.
  • Objects per user - all objects connected to the mobile user will be transferred to the user's mobile device. If Include Structure selected, all objects in the structure of the selected object will be transferred as well.
  • Objects per organization - if the mobile user is connected to the maintenance organization, then the objects which are connected to this maintenance organization will be transferred to the user's mobile device. If Include Structure selected, all objects in the structure of the relevant object will be transferred as well.
