3 Configuring Mobile Devices

This module describes how to configure your mobile device to connect to Oracle Beehive, and contains the following topics:

Registering Your Mobile Device

To register your mobile device:

  1. Access the Oracle Beehive User Preferences page through a supported Web browser. Typically, the URL will follow this structure:

  2. Enter your user name and password, and log in.

  3. Click Mobile Devices.

  4. Enter the phone number of your mobile device, including the country code, and click Add. Oracle Beehive will send a Short Message Service (SMS) message to your mobile device. Click the URL provided within the SMS message to complete the registration.

    Note:

    If your device fails to receive the SMS message, you will need to manually access the mobile device User Preferences page from your mobile browser using http://<Your-Server-Name>:<Port-Number>/uss/ or https://<Your-Server-Name>:<Port-Number>/uss/.

Customizing Synchronization

You can customize different aspects of your Oracle Beehive user experience by setting a date range for synchronized items, choosing whether to delete items outside the specified date range, and choosing whether to synchronize declined events.

Modifying the Default Date Range

When you synchronize your mobile device, events and tasks outside the server-defined, device-specific date range are not sent to the device by default. You can override this behavior by modifying your device settings.

To modify the default date range for your mobile device:

Append /dr(-<Days-Past>,<Days-Future>) to the Calendar URI on your mobile device, where <Days-Past> is the number of days in the past, and <Days-Future> is the number of days in the future.

Examples:

  • ./Calendar?/dr(-7,14): Synchronizes events and tasks seven days in the past to 14 days in the future.

  • ./Calendar/Events?/dr(-30,60): Synchronizes events 30 days in the past to 60 days in the future.

  • ./Calendar/Tasks?/dr(0,7): Synchronizes tasks from today to seven days in the future.

Deleting Items Outside the Date Range

Whenever you synchronize your mobile device, any events or tasks outside the specified date range of your device are archived on the server and deleted from the device by default. You can override this behavior by modifying your device settings.

To control whether or not items outside your specified date range are deleted from your mobile device during synchronization:

Append /del(<X>) to the Calendar URI on your device. Entering TRUE for <X> retains items outside your date range on your mobile device. Entering FALSE for <X> deletes items outside your date range from your mobile device. You can have different settings for events and tasks.

Examples:

  • ./Calendar/Tasks?/dr(-30,60)/del(false): Synchronizes tasks 30 days in the past to 60 days in the future, but retains tasks outside this date range on your device.

  • ./Calendar/Events?/dr(-30,60)/del(true): Synchronizes events 30 days in the past to 60 days in the future, and deletes events outside this date range from your device.

Transferring Declined Events to Your Mobile Device

By default, Oracle Beehive does not transfer declined events to your mobile device during synchronization. However, you may want to view declined events on your device in case you decide to attend an event that you have previously declined.

To transfer declined events to your mobile device:

Append /refusedentries(<X>) to the Calendar URI on your device. Entering TRUE for <X> synchronizes all events, including declined events, on your mobile device. Entering FALSE for <X> synchronizes only accepted events and unconfirmed events on your mobile device.

Examples:

  • ./Calendar?/refusedentries(true): Synchronizes all events (including declined events) and tasks.

  • ./Calendar?/dr(-7,14)/refusedentries(true): Synchronizes all events (including declined events) and tasks seven days in the past and 14 days in the future.

  • ./Calendar/Events?/refusedentries(false): Synchronizes only accepted events and unconfirmed events.
