Chapter 2: Developer Features

Updating records from PDA applications

When you make changes on record data from your PDA device while running applications in disconnected mode, you can check the status of your update operation. You can confirm whether the update operation succeeded, and if not, you can find out why it failed. The Mobile Portal Server maintains a log of all update requests it receives from the M-Business server during sync operations. Logs are created in the portaldatabase.

When you perform sync operations, update logs are sent to the PDA device. Click Log in the application pages to see a list of all sync log records. The List page of the logs shows only a subset of the fields from the log record. To see more details, click any column of the log record to display the detail page.

Use the Delete button on the detail page to delete log records. Delete log records periodically, otherwise, the list grows and increases your sync times. When you delete a log record, it is immediately removed from the device database and no longer appears in the log record list. However, the records are not deleted from the portal server until the next sync operation.
