Business Behavior and Backup

Offline Mode (Offline Support)

HtkDoli includes robust offline change management. When you validate the form (“Save” button):

  1. Changes (or creation) are saved locally on your device for immediate viewing.
  2. A task is added to the synchronization queue (Background Sync).
  3. HtkDoli will attempt to send this data to the Dolibarr server in the background. If you don’t have a network connection, the app will automatically try again as soon as the connection is restored.

Rights and Permissions

Registration on the server will strictly respect the permissions of your Dolibarr account. You must have third party creation or modification rights in Dolibarr for the operation to succeed on the server. Otherwise, the synchronization will fail and an error will be notified in the application.
