Can a Sync change 'Modified TimeStamp'?

in MirrorSync by 360Works

I am working on a solution that syncs an Entity table.

Even when I sync back-to-back there are 82 Entities  (out of hundreds) that are *always* updated on the client side - every time. The SAME 82 records. No human updated these records so some automated process is doing this. There are NO pre-sync or post sync processes being run. There are 11 tables being synced, only with this table does this occur.

Am I missing something? Any ideas where to look?

Thanks, Mark

Mark, is it possible that those records have a modification timestamp that was somehow changed to a future date? That would result in the same records being picked up as modified on every sync.

If not, then please run a sync that has no changes in it except for these 82 records (run several syncs if necessary to finish 'legitimate' changes), then send a problem report to us so that I can review the log file. Thanks.

Hi Jesse

Thanks for getting back to me. You may be correct, the ModTS may have been set int the future...

We just moved this solution into Production and have found this is NOT occurring any longer so I'm dropping the issue!

Thanks for your thoughts. Mark
