Setting a Default Offline Publication

See Also

For each publication, you can specify the tables and records that are copied offline and which roles are given access to them. Your solution can have multiple publications, each with different filters and permissions. For example, your solution can have one publication used by a salesperson and one used by a courier delivering packages. You can create an offline publication tailored to provide the information required by each job type.

The default publication is the one that is selected when a user makes the team solution part of the Favorites list and then selects the Make available offline option in Internet Explorer. You can also write code to make it possible for different offline publications to be selected for offline use based the user’s role.

To select the default offline publication

1. Open your solution in the Access Workflow Designer. For details, see Opening your Solution in the Access Workflow Designer.
   
   
2. From the Access Workflow Designer, select the team solution in the Object List.
   
   
3. In the Solution Properties pane, select the Offline tab.
   
   
4. In the Select a default offline publication box, select a publication as the default for the team solution.
   
   
5. Click Save.
