Configuring Synchronization SettingsLocate this document in the navigation structure

Prerequisites

  • You have received the required details, such as Client, Host, and Port name, from your administrator.

  • You have configured the user settings.

Context

Either you or your administrator can configure synchronization settings on the client device. Synchronization settings specify the parameters to connect to the Data Orchestration Engine (DOE) and the protocol to be used for synchronization.

The supported protocols are:

· HTTP

· HTTPS (for secure data transmission)

· Data Carrier Synchronization

This is used when connection to the DOE is not available or not possible. Data is transferred using storage devices such as floppy discs, CDs, DVDs, and USB drives. You can move the devices physically between the client device and either the DOE or another device that is connected to the DOE.

      Data Packaging Required

      Keep this option enabled to allow transfer of data in individual packages at the time of data synchronization. If the connection breaks during synchronization and you need to synchronize again, only incomplete or missing packages in the target system are transferred.

      This option is enabled by default.
