Synchronization Process

The following image shows the steps involved in the synchronization process, which are as follows:

  1. You make offline changes to the data on your mobile device (tablet or laptop).

  2. You dial in and synchronize data.

    You initiate the synchronization process by choosing File, then Synchronize Database from the application-level menu.

  3. The server accepts all the changes to the server data and any new or changed data from your mobile device.

  4. You see all the changes to your mobile device data and any new or changed data from the server.
