Create an Offline Mode Sync Schedule - iPad

Caching data for offline mode is a great way to improve offline mode performance and allow for the addition of assets and warehouse items when working offline. To make this process more convenient, NEXGEN offers a sync schedule feature so that you can schedule data to be cached in advance. For details, see below.

Note: Due to the manufacturer's design, the iPad requires that it is plugged in at the time of sync in order for the sync to work. Ensure your iPad is plugged in to guarantee a successful sync.
