Offline mode
Offline mode is very useful if some of your employees use laptops and not
always have connection to your server database when working. Offline mode
is "responsible" for delivering accurate data to the server database
if there was no network connection to the server workstation (See Offline
Mode, Options - Database, Options
- General, Main Window).

and click Compare to... tool-button. Now you can select comparison filters
using Filter tool-buttons and Filter drop-down lists (See How
