The Importance of Syncing

Synchronization is crucial for maintaining accurate and up-to-date information across all devices.

What is Synchronization? Synchronization connects your device to the server via the Internet, ensuring that data is consistent and current.

How It Works:

  • Offline Capability: You can capture issues or fill out forms on your device without an internet connection. This allows you to work offline seamlessly.
  • Sync When Online: Once a network is available, synchronize your device to update the server with the latest data.

Why Synchronize Regularly?

  • Up-to-Date Information: Regular synchronization ensures that all devices are updated with the latest information, preventing data discrepancies.
  • Data Backup: Syncing frequently ensures that your data is backed up on the server, protecting against data loss.

Best Practices:

  • Before Going On-Site: Sync your device before heading to the site to ensure you have the latest data.
  • After Completing Work: Sync again after your work is done to upload the latest updates and changes.

By following these practices, you ensure that all team members work with the most current information and that your data is safely backed up.
