File Synchronization

The file sync functionality lets the user sync data from other AVIX files/resources. This is useful functionality when working with big and/or multi-user process libraries.

Using multi-user process libraries often requires the synchronization of data to/from the master process library. This can easily be done by setting up sync sources in AVIX.

File syncing is done by selecting an AVIX source file to sync from. The master-file can sync from user-files and vice versa to exchange process tasks between the files.

A change management-view lets the user adjust the synchronized data e.g. if a change should be applied or not. In combination with the approval status setting (see APPROVAL SETTING ) this gives a powerful way to keep track of process library changes.

 

SET UP the SYNCHRONIZATION

The setup is managed under File/Import/AviX file synchronization.

Label: Name the sync type

Filename: Location of the file to be synchronized

Import type: "Process driven import" - for importing process plans. "Location driven import" - for importing method tree

 

At advanced setup it is possible to select additional data to be synchronized, and how to treat removed tasks.

Now the setup is complete in one direction (from one file to the other file).
