4. Synchronization

Synchronization ensures that data in your mobile phone and in the server database is identical.

Synchronization can be of three types:

4.1 Initial Synchronization

This type of synchronization occurs when you log in to your eWay-CRM Mobile for the first time.

4.2 Automatic Synchronization

This type of synchronization depends on your mobile phone activity and the battery status. Provided that your battery is full and you use a Wi-Fi connection, the synchronization will happen as follows:

Every 90 seconds if you use eWay-CRM Mobile
Every hour if you don’t use eWay-CRM Mobile

4.3 Manual Synchronization

To synchronize data manually, you can:

Swipe down from the top. You will see a progress icon during the synchronization.

Tap Settings in the main menu.

Then, click Synchronization.

In this window, you can see whether the synchronization is successful, or not. If you click Sync, you can run synchronization manually, if you need it.

If you want to use other options in this dialog, you need to tap Advance (iPhone) or click three dots in the top right corner (Android). There are options that can help with some issues that can appear while using the application:

Rebuild Spotlight Index (only iPhone) - the Spotlight function rebuild its indexes, so you have up-to-date data that can be searched in iPhone searching
Wipe DB & Sync All / Remove All & Sync – full synchronization same as the initial synchronization that recreates a database on your phone to the up to date version (e.g. after an error)
Remove From Upload Queue - it deletes changes that should be uploaded to the server
Sync All – revision of all items, not only item changes
