Synchronizing Data

AutoSync

EDM AutoSync Client software, allows Rig users to keep their data synchronized with the Regional Office database (or visa versa) with the click of a button.

Only users who have been granted permission to the correct AutoSync tokens can assign wells to an AutoSync Client in the OpenWells® application. For more information on AutoSync tokens, see the EDM Administration Utility online help.

Prior to synchronizing data, the Rig and Regional Offices must be configured. For information on configuring AutoSync, see the AutoSync Client online help.

To synchronize data in OpenWells:

Launch and login to AutoSync Client.
Place the Well under AutoSync Control, if it is not already.

In the OpenWells application, navigate to the Well to be placed under AutoSync control.
Open the Well Properties dialog.
Select the AutoSync tab.
Click the Place under AutoSync Control button.

Data synchronization is now controlled by AutoSync.

Click on the AutoSync Transfer button.

In Classic OpenWells this is the Transfer button located in the toolbar.

Note: This button may not be available if the AutoSync system setting has been turned off.

In the Interactive Well Site this is the picture of the Satellite on the well site canvas.
Data is transferred and synchronized with the Regional Office database.
If conflicts occur, read the AutoSync Client online help Defining Conflicts topic.

Note: AutoSync Client must be running at the time wells are assigned and synchronized.
