The Subscription panel contains a list of the segment objects that will be replicated. Subscription allows you to update object attributes with the data received during replication.
If you subscribe to an object, its attributes will be updated during replication. If you subscribe to a group of objects, the attributes of all group items will be updated.
Each of these objects belongs to a filter type. The list of these filter types is determined by the developer and cannot be edited. You must select a filter type for manual subscription to segment objects.
Basic objects of the system are replicated automatically, regardless of whether the user has subscribed to them or not. Data replication for objects within a date range is carried out only if they are added to the segment subscription specification by the user.
The Subscription panel is composed of the following columns:
Segment is the segment where the subscription is entered.
Name is the object, the data of which are transmitted during replication.
Filter type is the object filter type.
Subscription is an attribute defining the kind of the subscription.
Subscription state is the state of the subscription to data, changed during the replication.
Subscription validity is the length of time during which the subscription is valid.
Date range type is the way you define the period of the subscription’s validity.
Start date is the start date of the subscription.
End date is the end date of the subscription validity.
Number of days is the duration of the subscription validity in days.
The specification context menu contains the following commands:
(Ins) – adds a new subscription to an object.
(F2) – edits the selected subscription.
The command is only available when one subscription has been selected manually.
– opens the window of synchronisation jobs for objects of the selected subscriptions.
The command is only available when one subscription has been selected manually.
(Del) – permanently deletes subscriptions to objects.
The command is only available when one or more subscriptions have been selected manually.
(Ctrl+P) – generates print layouts.
– menu with the commands to manage the summary functions of the data grid.
– menu with the commands to operate the data grid.
To add a new subscription to the segment specification, use the entry window. The editor window is used to edit the specification items.
A permanent delete confirmation prompt appears when you delete items from the specification.
