BCM 2007; shared DB on SBS SQL2005:
1. Create, modify Search Folders or user fields, : no problems. Other users
see new search folders and changes to existing search folders instantly.
Impressive!
2. Customize Master Category List: Problems: User A creates new categories
and assigns colors to them, then assigns catagories to contacts. User B's
Master Category list does not get updated and when he looks at the contact,
the category text is there, but not the colors.
3. Views: Problems: new views created by User A are seen by User B. However,
if User A then changes the View's filter, User B's copy of the View does not
get changed reliably, especially if the view's filter uses the category
field. If you jump around a lot in both users, the changes sometimes
eventually show up for User B. I haven't been able to pin down the sequence
that triggers the transfer.
I assumed that all the customization paramers are stored in the SQL db and
would thus take effect for all users seamlessly, but there seems to be some
subtlties.
If anyone can explain this or tell me how to make it work, I'll much
appreciate it.
