Mobile App: Syncing

Sync your ProcessPro mobile app to see the latest process updates. Includes managed documents and attachments in syncs and Document Storage management.

Written by Hylet Pistorius

The mobile app is a view-only tool. All changes and updates are made using the desktop version.

Users should sync the mobile app before heading onto the floor to ensure the latest data is downloaded. Once synced, processes and value streams can be viewed entirely offline, making the app ideal for teams working in factories or locations with unreliable network signals. To help with regular syncing, an automatic, recurring background sync can be scheduled.

Important: to ensure access on the floor, the specific maps required for viewing must be synced in advance.


Managed Documents and Attachments

Managed documents and attachments are now included in syncs and will appear in the left navigation menu once downloaded. You can download, share, or open them in another viewer (e.g. a PDF viewer). Links open in a new tab, and mail-to attachments open in your device's default email client.

Synced managed documents and attachments contribute to your device's Document Storage. See Mobile App: Document Storage for how to manage this.

Note

  • Manual syncing cannot be initiated when a background sync is in progress.
