Note! Only users with Super user access rights can connect. You cannot use the sample database in Mamut Business Software to evaluate Mamut Online Desktop. Mamut Online Desktop is not available in any evaluation version.

Update Password: This option is only displayed if you are connected to Mamut Online Desktop. The password for your Mamut ID can be changed "outside" of Mamut Business Software. For instance, if you have changed your password directly in Mamut Online Desktop using your web browser, you must update the password here in order to disconnect. You must also update the password via this feature in order to continue the synchronisation. If the password is not updated within 20 minutes, the synchronisation will terminate.

Change User: This option is only displayed if you are connected to Mamut Online Desktop. Only one user can edit the connection. The user in question must be a registered super user and linked to an employee in the employee register. Which user should be responsible for managing the connection, can be changed here by logging on with your Mamut ID.

Disconnect: This option is only displayed if you are connected to Mamut Online Desktop. Click the button to halt the synchronisation and disconnect the company database from the Mamut Online Desktop. Read more about disconnecting Mamut Online Desktop here.

Synchronisation

One of the computers within your network will synchronise with Mamut Online Desktop. It is recommended that you synchronise the computer which contains the database. Select the computer from the drop-down list.

Synchronisation conflicts: The log displays a list of all conflicts and how they have been resolved over the last seven days.

A conflict will be registered if a user in Mamut Business Software and a user on  Mamut Online Desktop edit the same field in the same item (for instance, change the name of the same contact) during the same synchronisation session. The conflict is logged in the synchronisation history and will contain information on how the conflict was handled. However, a change of two different fields for the same contact will not be treated as a conflict.

In such instances, the changes made in Mamut Business Software will always override the changes made via Mamut Online Desktop.

Status: Clicking the Status button displays a basic synchronisation which lists downloads and uploads performed during the last seven days, as well as information about when and from which computer the last synchronisation was carried out.

Tip! The information box Synchronisation history displays the same information. You can choose to display this box on the desktop. Read more about the desktop information boxes in the section User Settings for the Desktop.
