Managing ReflexBlue Export synchronisations in the ReflexBlue Import/Export Service
In the ReflexBlue Import/Export Service, you use ReflexBlue Export synchronisations to create a link with an existing export definition in a ReflexBlue administration. This link ensures that packaged export files, which are created during the export of data in your ReflexBlue administration, are automatically retrieved by the ReflexBlue Import/Export Service and saved locally on your PC.
In this part of the manual, you’ll read how to add, edit, and delete ReflexBlue Export synchronisations in the ReflexBlue Import/Export Service.
