Once data is downloaded onto your device, you continue to do your tasks using the
mWorkOrder application like you do when you are online. These offline transactions are
stored in Offline Outbox .
For example, when you modify and post a work order, the record is
stored in Offline Outbox. These changes are synchronized with backend systems when you
tap the online button. If the transactions have errors, they remain in Offline Outbox.
Open these transactions from Offline Outbox, correct the errors, and repost them.
The records that you work on in offline mode also appear in respective
modules along with the regular list. For example, if you have created new a Notification
in the offline mode, it appears in the regular Notification list with a dummy
notification number and in the offline outbox. When the application switches from
offline to online mode, the dummy number is replaced with a regular number and the new
record is moved from the Offline Outbox to the backend system.Figure 1. Offline Regular List View
If you log out from the application when the shift ends, the pending or failed
transactions are stored in Offline Outbox. When you log back into the application, you
can access the pending or failed transactions from the Offline Outbox and reprocess
them.Figure 2. Offline Outbox
Note:
App prompts you if you log out without completing the synchronization.
If you uninstall or unregister, the transaction entries are removed from Offline
Outbox.
The Work Orders with drafted failed form postings are not displayed in the
Offline Outbox.
To access the Offline Outbox, tap Outbox on the top of the
screen.
