Synchronization Options That Users Can Choose

The user can do one of the following to synchronize the remote client:

• Background synchronization. The user chooses the File menu, and then the Synchronize Database menu item while the remote client is running. This action starts the remote client as a background process so that the user can continue to use a Siebel application or other Windows applications during the synchronization process.
• Stand-alone synchronization. The user uses the Siebel Remote icon or a scheduling program from a third party. This action allows the user to synchronize without starting the Siebel application. TrickleSync also does a stand-alone synchronization when it starts a synchronization session. For more information, see How Siebel Remote Uses TrickleSync to Manage Synchronization Frequency.
