== Data visibility ==
Occasionally, you may run into a situation that you cannot see a particular record in the app. What are some of the possible causes?
; Sync Filters on entities
: Find your entity in the '''Entities''' section of your app project and click '''[[Sync Filter]]'''. If a record does not match your Sync Filter, it is not downloaded to the local database, and therefore unavailable in offline mode.
; Sync Filters on views
: Edit the view and click '''Edit Filter'''. If a record does not match your view filter, it is downloaded to the device, but this particular view does not list it. Different views can have different filters.
; Entity Mode (online / offline)
: When you create a record in one mode and then switch to the other mode without synchronizing, that record is not visible in the second mode. Synchronize apps when switching between online and offline modes.
; Max Sync Records for entity reached
: Go to the '''[[Configuration]]''' section of your app project and switch to the '''Offline Data Sync''' tab. The parameter '''Max Sync Records''' specifies how many records are downloaded for each object/entity.
; User role (profile)
: Your user role does not have the permission to view the record.
Tip: It is not possible to use Parent > Child relationships in Sync Filter (Contact.Account is possible, Account.Contacts is not). The same limitation applies to view filters used in online mode.
