Mobile Workflow Does Not Receive Notifications

Problem: A mobile workflow, which includes a Server-initiated starting point, does not receive incoming notifications.

Explanation 1: The workflow has not been deployed, or has been deployed but not assigned to the device

Solution:
  1. Ensure that the user's device has the Sybase Messaging Client installed, and that it is configured correctly.
  2. Use Sybase Control Center (Application > Application Connections) to ensure that the device is connected and online.
  3. Deploy the mobile workflow, and assign it to the user's device.

Explanation 2: The matching or e-mail transformation rules are improperly configured, or the e-mail message is improperly formatted.

Solution:
  1. Verify that the matching rule and e-mail transformation rules are correct and conform to the e-mail being sent to the device.
  2. Send a test notification to the device using the "Send a notification..." option on the Flow Design page of the Mobile Workflow Forms Editor.

Explanation 3: The Notification Mailbox is not properly configured.

Solution:
  1. Use Sybase Control Center to verify that the Notification Mailbox is properly configured.
  2. Navigate to Workflows > Notification Mailbox and ensure that the Enable checkbox is selected.
  3. Ensure there is a distribution rule (for example, the To: field must contain the value Custom 1) that matches the properties for the device user (Frank's iOS device's Custom 1 property is set to frank@localhost).
