Overview

BCDE Sync streamlines the transfer of files and their attributes (metadata) between different BCDE servers, helping support information management processes such as ISO19650 whilst reducing risk and inefficiencies in handover

Headline features.

The release brings the following major features to Sync:

• Publish documents from:
  • A BCDE Source Server to a BCDE Destination Server.
  • A BCDE Source Space to a BCDE Destination Space (on the same Server).
• Define a Connector between a Source Server/Space to a Destination Server/Space.
• Define mappings between Source and Destination metadata values.
• Share a Connector with other users.

The following are dependencies for the Sync module:

• The Source server needs to have the Sync module installed.
• The Source server may need a core BCDE update that includes new or updated APIs that support the Sync module.
  • Update available for BCDE version 7.3.
  • Included as standard in BCDE 7.4 or later.
• The Destination server may need a core BC update that includes new or updated APIs that support the Sync module
  • Update available for BCDE version 7.3.
  • Included as standard in BCDE 7.4 or later.
• The Schema in the Source server and the Schema in the Destination server may require modification to enable the successful publishing of information.
