Single/ any item synchronization via RMB menu

Post by Trinitylab »

Hello,

I know that sync with Android is activated only by Android, but that could be changed in order to get this:

RMB on any item on PC EPIM > Sync with > selection comes

That should last around 2 seconds.

What happens when a user makes such a selection? What's lasting for 2 secs?

A quick sync of the newest data only.
I know background sync should work, but it does not.
And even if it was, it is done once a while.
In case of an urgent need to have something on the phone, that could do the job. Like leaving the office, and right before it making sure the phone number one has just received from the client is in the phone.
Manual sync lasts longer. And also returns with errors.

Unfortunately it's not going to work that way due to the client-server architecture used. Sync should always be initiated from the client's side and that's Android EPIM in our case.

No problem, this will be improved in the future when Android EPIM is able to sync with EPIM Cloud (working on that at the moment). In this case as AEPIM as WinEPIM will act as clients and therefore are capable of initiating synchronization.
