Question:
Can MetaData Only and Enhanced Sync be used together for the sync process in CRM?
Answer:
For the Metadata Only setting in the sync process, Enhanced Sync is not needed. Enhanced Sync is used for data download. A stall might occur during the sync process for the relevant object if both options are enabled at the same time.
Field Information:
- Meta_Data_Only_vod If this box is checked, then the sync process never downloads data for this object. This is used for data that is only sent up from the tablet.
- Enable_Enhanced_Sync_vod Enable for objects which use a Private sharing model or have an updated Where clause. This forces a full comparison of all the object's records that the user has access to with the records on the device. Note: This has the potential to significantly increase sync times. This field is ignored for the Account Object and any child objects of Account, which always have this enabled.
