PLEASE NOTE

The following topic may include references to the custom scripting aspects of the IndySoft product line and as such some aspects of the discussed features may not be accessible by end customers. For reference, the affected features will either use the word 'script' or phrase 'custom script.' Refer to the Custom Scripting Overview topic for more information about custom scripting and how it is implemented and supported within the product.The IndySoft DataSync Utility is used to execute scripts on a set interval. Typically these scripts will interface with the IndySoft database, syncing or reporting on various data. The DataSync Utility contains 2 exes:

·IndySoft DataSync Service (IndySoftSync.exe) - a windows service used to execute scripts on a timer. Scripts are executed every xx hours, xx minutes, xx seconds, as setup in the Options. Typically scripts will read or write xml or other text-based files to sync the IndySoft database with external databases or simply report on IndySoft data, etc. The IndySoftSync.exe can also be run as a windowed application when it is run directly (rather than started from Service Manager).

·IndySoft DataSync Options (IndySoftSyncOptions.exe) - this utility is used to setup the scripts that will be run by IndySoftSync.exe. The login options for the service are also setup here, along with a log of all sync operations. In addition, this utility is used to setup Sync Maps and REST Scripts that can be executed with the IndySoft REST Service. Contact IndySoft Sales for more details on IndySoft REST Scripting. |
