Synchronization Server Help


Creating synchronization objects

Although each object requires different input, you create all objects using the same basic process in the Mobile Devices Administration Center. You can create an object from the object tree or while you are working within another object.

Creating an object from the object tree

To create a synchronization object:

  1. In the object tree, select the object folder that corresponds to the type of object that you want to create.

  2. Right-click the object folder and select Create. If you are creating a subscription, a submenu opens. Select the type of subscription that you want to create from the submenu.

  3. The Create notebook opens, with the object type displayed in the title of the notebook.

For details on how to complete the notebook pages for each object, see Related information below.

After you save an object, you can edit the object to complete it or make changes. See Editing a synchronization object for more information.

Creating a new object when working in another object

The Mobile Devices Administration Center allows you to create new synchronization objects for a related object without disturbing your workflow. For example, you might be editing the characteristics of a group named Visiting Nurses and realize that you need to add a new nurse who just started work. Without leaving the Edit Group notebook, you could click Create on the Users page to open the Create User notebook, where you can add the new nurse and assign the nurse to the Visiting Nurses group.

Note:Restriction:You cannot open more than one notebook for each object type. For example, if you are working in the Edit Group notebook, you can open a Create User notebook to create a user for the group; however, you cannot then open the Create Group notebook from the Create User notebook because the Edit Group notebook is already open.
