Sync connects your raw data to Phocas, making the data available in Designer and synchronising updates at scheduled intervals. If you already have synced data to work with, go straight to the next step.

Installing Sync 

The current version of the Phocas Sync installer can be downloaded here

Once installed, locate the PhocasSync application and open it. We recommend you tick 'Set up file association' for .sync files.

 

 




Notes

  • Note: Sync does not append under the same configuration name. That is, If there are 10 files already Synced under the name ProjectX, and you want to add 3 more, then you must Sync all 13 files. If you only sync 3, then you'll only get three, and the original 10 will be removed from the cloud.

Edit columns

If individual files are to be synced, there is some ability to edit prior, as follows:

  • Renaming headings
  • Changing the data type (text, number, date/time, boolean, unicode)
  • Setting a field length

After editing, an asterisk will appear in the Edit Columns column in the Data Items tab.
