Glossary Glossary Boldfaced text identifies additional terms defined in this glossary. See "The Conflict Resolution Tab" under "The Advanced Settings Dialog" in Chapter 3 for more information on Conflict Resolution and data conflicts. Conflict Resolution A process (controlled by a setting in the Conflict Resolution tab of the Advanced Settings dialog) that is sometimes used by Intellisync to determine how to resolve data conflicts during synchronizations. See Data Conflict, below. Data Conflict A data conflict occurs when records in both systems have matching key field values but conflicting data in other mapped fields. (For example, if both systems have address records in which the First and Last Name values are identical, but the Address values differ.) The very first time a set of data is synchronized, (and any time you Import or Export) the Conflict Resolution setting is used to resolve all such conflicts. Upon subsequent synchronizations of the same data (after the history file has been created), the Conflict Resolution setting is needed only under the following conditions: • When records with the same key fields have been added to both systems since the last synchronization, but they have conflicts in other mapped fields. • When mapped fields in previously synchronized records (with matching key fields) have been edited since the last synchronization, but edited differently. Export A one-way transfer of data. The Intellisync Export command (selected in the Choose Translator dialog) exports records from a selected handheld application to a selected PC application. Field The location of a single data element. Each application is organized into sets of fields (records). For example, handheld Address Book records consist of the fields Last Name, First Name, Title, Company, etc. Page 47
