Features
CorporateSync 1.1.3 for Windows CE resolves a number of limitations created by hand-held reminders. Previous versions of CorporateSync would fail during synchronization when a reminder for an Entry was scheduled to go off that day, since the device would only refresh the reminders database at midnight. With CorporateSync 1.1.3, you will receive a warning regarding the reminder, but synchronization is not interrupted. To resolve the reminder problem, open the Windows CE calendar, double-click the Entry that failed to synchronize and choose OK. This updates the information in the user notification database.
- Synchronize on a PC that does not have a CorporateTime, OpenTime or Netscape Calendar client installed.
- Choose whether or not refused Entries will be synchronized.
- Synchronize with a CorporateTime/OpenTime 4.0+ Address Book.
- Automatically install the link when the user does next synchronization.
- Synchronize the list of users and resources invited to Entries (max 12).
- Limit the size of details that are synchronized.
Limitations, caveats, and known problems with this release
- 9107: Details and attendees included with Day Events and Daily Notes created in CorporateTime are transferred into the Notes section on the hand-held (attendees before details). Notes created on the handheld, added before the attendee list (not in the details section), are deleted upon synchronization.
- 9048: Pocket Outlook does not support times in start and due dates. If you modify these Tasks on the handheld and then synchronize, the times will be lost.
- 8812: If an Entry is deleted on one side and an umapped field is modified on the other, the Entry will be deleted.
- 8947: Deleting the application and then reinstalling will cause all Entries that are on both your handheld and desktop to be viewed as non-corresponding Entries. The next time you synchronize, the Entries will be duplicated. To avoid this, reinstall CorporateSync without uninstalling it first.
- 8884: Avoid problems by keeping your handheld connected when installing remote files.
- You cannot synchronize the handheld's repeating Events. You can, however, synchronize CorporateTime's recurring Entries.
- You cannot synchronize Address Book Entries when CorporateTime is open on your PC.
- You can only synchronize with one Address Book.
- If using CorporateTime/OpenTime 3.4, you cannot synchronize your contacts.
- CorporateSync currently only fully supports English-language synchronization.
- If the CorporateTime Address Book you synchronize with becomes deleted and you recreate one with the same name, the next time you synchronize, all unmodified handheld contacts will be deleted.
- CorporateSync is unable to present a list of possible matches for duplicated names. To avoid this problem, enter as much unique user information as possible (e.g. organization unit, etc.).
- Reminders for Entries and Tasks that occur on the same day you synchronize your Windows CE device may not appear. You will be notified of the error, but it will not affect your synchronization.
