User Preferences for Synchronization

The following table describes parameters of the DB Synchronization view of the User Preferences screen. You can modify these parameters while synchronization runs.

Parameter	Description
Connection	Allows the user to choose a networking connection. Leaving the box empty configures the synchronization to use an existing network connection. Modifications to networking options take effect the next time synchronization makes a connection to the Siebel Server.
Retrieve Published Files	Synchronization gets files that are recently added to the Siebel File System, provided that the user possesses visibility to those files.
Retrieve Auto Update Files	Synchronization gets updates to local files that are marked for automatic update. Siebel Remote does not get any automatic update files that are not local or that are not requested. For more information, see Retrieving Auto Update Files.
Auto Start Synchronization	Synchronization begins as soon as you call synchronization. Siebel Remote does not display the synchronization dialog box. To display the dialog box throughout your session, you can press SHIFT when you click Start.
