The idea is to include the possibility to work with the prestashop manager local embedded database from another prestashop manager much like server/client functionality.

In our case, we have low internet coverage so we need the php mysql bridge connection mode to post data changes to web once a day while being able to work locally offline. Then, once a week or so, perform a 'get data from web' to get the new customers and orders.

That method is fine with only one prestahop manager station. But we plan to add a second station with another license to work with prestashop manager simultaneously. So if we were to use that second station with php mysql bridge connection mode as well, the post/get would start to be confusing. Having to perform constantly a whole 'get data from web' operation only to get the changes made on the other station. If they were to enter a new product on one station and then someone else on the other station add information to that new product at the same time it wouldn't be efficient.

Would be a lot better to use the second station with direct connection mode to the local embedded database of the first station(the one in php bridge mode). This is what I mean with server/client functionality.

This way the first station could pick all the changes made to the database to perform the 'post data to web' at the end of the day while being able to work simultaneously on real time on LAN.

Hello Petete!
In your case it's not so easy to synchronize 2 or more work stations with bridge connection. We don't provide server-client architecture right now.
In this situations you should use direct connection.

Ok. Fair enough. But still this is a very basic functionality from any inventory management solution. I think it's a good idea to consider in the future. So you all readers know, if you think that would be helpful, vote for this!

Regards.
