UPDATING FMP RECORDS FROM FH

Post by babayaga321 » 14 Apr 2016 22:01

Hi All... I'm going through some of my data now that I've upgraded FH to 6.2 and have been looking at the hint data and also the relevant records in FMP itself.

My question is, although I updated a record last night in FH, it does not seem to have made its way through to FMP as yet (i.e. the application accessed through a separate browser rather than through FH itself).

I've updated a couple of other things to check, but does anyone know how much of a gap there is between the two?

Cheers - Graham.

Hi Graham,

I am not sure what you are expecting to automatically make its way from FH through to FMP, but there is no transfer of records in that direction.

If you are wanting the 'hint' to vanish, then it relies on you clicking the 'hint' in FH, following the link to FMP, opening the record and choosing the Accept or Reject option after Signing In to FMP.

Hi Mike.

No... I'm fine with the relationship between the two, however when you open FMP in the websearch window of FH, review and then accept the records in there, I would expect the changes to be visible in FMP when you view the website separately via a browser.

Unless the changes are cached somewhere and then loaded into FMP a day or two later?

Thanks for replying in any case. :-)

Graham.

What changes are you expecting to be visible?

Nothing gets loaded into FMP ever.

Absolutely nothing happens to the FMP website.
All the 'hint' management and caching happens in FH on a per Project basis local to your PC.
