The Inbox

The inbox enables the synchronization between the Akuiteo Mobile app and the server. Therefore, times, schedules, expense reports or absence requests which have been entered at any time (online or offline) are regularly updated, either manually or automatically (every 5 minutes).

Conversely, any modification made on Akuiteo will be synchronized on Akuiteo Mobile app.

The advantage is that the element can still be modified even if it is in the inbox.

Note:
If you have no Internet connection, Akuiteo mobile app can still be used. Data is sent to the server when the connection is possible.

: : Synchronizing an element

To synchronize an element, you just have to slide up from any screen, except a data entry form.

The synchronization is done in 3 different ways:

The expenses you entered are displayed in the inbox. During the synchronization with the server, expenses are sent to the server and are added to the last non-finished expense report. Akuiteo creates an expense report if it does not exist.

To synchronize expense reports:

or

The procedure is the same as far as times are concerned.

: : Canceling the sending process and going back to the previous status

Before synchronizing, if you made a data capture error, you can go back to the previous status at any time, or delete it if it is new.

  1. Move the line to be synchronized to the left.
  2. Click on the Cancel the modification button.

If a version of this time already exists, the block is greyed out and you will find again the element before the modification is updated.

If an element is new, this function deletes it.

: : Synchronization conflict

If the Newer Line on the server message is displayed after synchronizing with the server in the To be completed area, it means that an existing schedule item has been modified on the application mobile and the server at the same time.

In this case, Akuiteo takes the data on the server into account. The user of the mobile application must then cancel his modification for the synchronization to display the latest data from the server.

Example
- A consultant modifies a schedule item offline. The synchronization happens when his mobile is connected to the network.
- His manager modifies the same schedule element on the server, just before the consultant launches the mobile synchronization.
- Since the modification on the server takes precedence over that on the mobile, the consultant reads the message Newer line on the server and must undo its modification by a left slide> Cancel the change from the To be completed area.
-At the next synchronization, he can see the modification made by his manager.
