Replication Status (Legacy)
System
The Replication Status Legacy screen within the older OPS-COM Android application displays the synchronization state of all local database tables against the central server. Its primary purpose is to help identify connectivity issues and allow users to manually manage data synchronization when standard automated syncing fails. This article is intended for OPS-COM administrators and field enforcement staff using the legacy application.
Setup and Configuration
The Replication Status screenfeature displaysis allbuilt natively into the legacy application and does not require backend configuration.
Admin Side: No administrative setup is required.
User Side: Users must have the legacy OPS-COM parking enforcement app installed on their handheld device and be logged in to view the local database tabletables.
Using this Feature
Enforcement personnel can use this feature to check the health of their connection and manually force data onpushes yourif unit and whether or not the tables/datarecords are synchronizedfailing withto theupload server.automatically.

Status Icons
Indicators
The following icons are used to clearly indicate status:the synchronization status of each individual table:
-
Green Checkmark: Table data is successfully synchronized with the server.
-
Red X: Table data is NOT synchronized with the server.
Note: During normal use (i.e., when issuing violations), it's expected that tables like VehicleTransfer and ViolationsTransfer may become temporarily out of sync. This indicates that new data (e.g., violations or vehicles) has been captured on your device and will need to be synced to the server.
- Blue Exclamation Point:
This indicates thereThere is currently no table data that needs to be synchronized between the handheld and the server.

Warning:This option willdelete/droppermanently delete the local table data and retrieve the newest availabletabledata from the server.This could result in violations and/or vehicle data that hasn't yet been synchronized to the server and is still only on the local handheld from being lost. If a table is showing as out of sync never rebuild and retrieve table data unless instructed to by us. -

Delete local table
datadata:
Warning: This will permanently delete the local table data but has no effect on the server. Similar to the above this could result in the loss of local table data if not synchronized to the server first. Never select this function unless told to by us.

Best Practices and Considerations
-
Rely on standard login for synchronization: If your unit is working correctly, none of these manual options should be necessary. We highly recommend simply logging out and logging back into the application as needed, which acts as a safe, natural trigger for proper synchronization.
-
Avoid unauthorized rebuilds or deletions: Never select the rebuild or delete functions unless explicitly instructed by OPSCOM Support. Doing so without manually pushing your data first can result in the permanent loss of violations or vehicle data that has not yet been synchronized to the server.
-
Communicate before sending logs: If you need to use the Email debug details option, please notify the OPS-COM support team first if possible, or only select it when actively requested by a support technician.
