To create a Synchronization Job, press the Add Synchronization Job button and select the desired system type from the dropdown.

To edit a job, press the Edit button in the Actions table column.

Restrictions per Objecttype

Synchronisation jobs provide the ability to restrict synchronisation per object type by defining a white list of namespaces for parameters such as technical names. The available parameters differ per system type. To do this, you can enter namespaces in a matrix with the available object types in the rows and restriction parameters such as technical names in the columns. You can use the * asterisk as a wildcard to define namespaces, e.g. Z* to define names that begin with Z. When a restriction is defined, it means that only objects that match the restriction will be synchronised.

Restricting the SAC Synchronisation via Path

A peculiarity is the restriction of the path in SAC systems. If the synchronization of a SAC connection is to be restricted via the path, the path must be specified for public objects in all languages used. For example, Public/, Pubblico/, Öffentlich/* etc.
