Messaging-Based Synchronization Packages

Messaging-based synchronization (MBS) packages are packaged mobile business objects (MBOs) that synchronize data through a messaging paradigm. Messaging-based synchronization packages operate through device subscription to the package. Once subscription is established, the server is responsible for maintaining the subscribed data set through data pushes.

MBS package administration involves configuring role mapping, setting required properties for cache and synchronization groups, purging the cache, managing messaging subscription properties, registering user devices, modifying settings for registered user devices, and reviewing client activities.

Note: Depending on the type of messaging package you are configuring (for example, one that requires a SAP DOE connection, such as a Sybase Mobile Workflow package), not all configuration steps apply because some features are not supported for this package type. For example, Sybase Mobile Workflow packages need not configure cache settings or sync groups. Role mappings are also not required.
