SAP Asset Manager Offline INI file "refresh" table frequency

[ed_miller]

In Work Manager, the Complex Tables (for example) would have a TABLE_REFRESH and TABLE_CHECK for it to determine how often to check (TABLE_CHECK) and do a "full reload" after the interval has elapsed (TABLE_REFRESH).

For SAP Asset Manager, there is an Offline INI file that gets generated and imported into the Destination in SAP Mobile Services. We see there is a "refresh_interval" configuration that is set to 1440 minutes (24 hours) for all entities. is this the save as TABLE_REFRESH for Agentry?

It does not appear that this configuration does anything unless the "shared_data" flag is set to "Y". What does this "shared" concept really mean and how does it work?

Is there a way to set entity 1 to refresh every 1440 minutes and entity 2 to refresh every 10,080 minutes (assuming this "refresh_interval" means the same as TABLE_REFRESH)?

Real example. We have the Vendors table that is downloading almost 1,000,000 records. We want this table to refresh once a month and other tables (e.g. Employees) to refresh once a day. How to we configure SAM to support this?

Thanks,

Ed

Ed, you will do this using backend SAP system oMDO Configuration. In any oMDO configuration -> Client State Settings, set attribute 'Enable Periodic Refresh' to true, and define a value for attribute 'Refresh Frequency (Hour)'. Mobile service setting you are referring to is for staging table in SCPms, which is not used by SAP Asset Manager.
