Planon AppSuite synchronization via Background actions
In Planon AppSuite, all essential order-related data is sent from the app to the back-office through an outbox-inbox mechanism. Whether field engineers are working online or offline, all relevant app actions are collected in an outbox on the app.
If they are working online, the outbox will immediately send the data to the back-office.
If they are working offline, the data remains stored in the outbox until they are online again.
All outbox data is sent from the outbox to the AppSuite inbox in System info > Background actions. Here, a back-office employee can monitor and assess the background actions. Those actions that completed with errors must be queued for a retry.
