An overview of the Disconnected Editing toolset

The disconnected editing toolset contains tools for performing checkout/check-in replication. Checkout/check-in replication allows remote or mobile users to transfer data from a central database to remote or mobile locations, enabling users to operate independently. This avoids the overhead of a remote database connection while allowing users to maintain connections to other network-based services, such as e-mail.

Remote or mobile users may continue to work with and modify the data even though they are disconnected from the network. When a connection to the network is reestablished, any changes made to the data can be transferred to, and integrated with, data maintained in the central database.

Héritage :

This toolset, including all tools contained within it, has been deprecated.

Note that these tools only work for checkout/check-in replication and do not support two-way and one-way replication. It is recommended that you use the tools under the Distributed Geodatabase toolset, since they cover all types of replication. The disconnected editing toolset should only be used to support already existing applications.

Tool	Description
Check In	Synchronizes changes from a check-out replica in an ArcSDE, file, or personal geodatabase to the parent ArcSDE geodatabase. Use the Synchronize Changes tool in place of this tool for new applications.
Check In From Delta	Imports changes from a delta file into the parent replica. A delta file contains only the changes exported from a child replica geodatabase. Use the Import Message tool in place of this tool for new applications.
Check Out	Creates a check-out replica from datasets in an ArcSDE geodatabase to an ArcSDE, file, or personal geodatabase for offline editing. Use the Create Replica tool in place of this tool for new applications.
Export To Delta	Exports changes in a check-out replica geodatabase to a delta file. A delta file contains only the changes exported from a replicated geodatabase. Use the Export Data Change Message tool in place of this tool for new applications.
