Basics
There are three different interface scenarios that can be configured for every single Proxy Prop-erty
- Master
- Client
- Bi-directional
This Interface direction as well as the conflict solving mechanism must be configureable on the Relation between MetaProxy and ProxyMetaProperty.
Master
As the Proxy Property is defined as a Master, the value is always exported from UBIK. The value will never be imported. Changes from the external system will always be discarded.
Client
As the Proxy Property is defined as a Client, the value is always be updated during an import from the 3rd party system. The value will never be exported. Changes in UBIK will always be dis-carded.
Bi-Directional
As the Proxy Property is defined as export/import “Bi-Directional” the Proxy supports both, exporting and importing the Property value. During the processing conflicts must be recog-nized. A conflict is as the property was changed in UBIK AND in the external system. There are two different Conflict scenarios:
- Solve the conflict according the Timestamp information: the newest change wins agains the older one.
- Manual solve: mark the object and let the user solve the “problem”
