Managing channels
Channels are web content, optimized for use on your mobile device, that M-Business Server delivers to your
device. There are three categories of channels:
Public channels are available to all users. If your system administrator has defined public channels, you
can browse and select public channels to add to your device.
If your system administrator makes any changes to a public channel to which you are subscribed, you
will download those changes when you synchronize.
Group channels are for use by a specific group of users. Note that some channel groups are optional,
while others are not. If your system administrator has defined optional channel groups, you can browse
and select channel groups to join. By joining a channel group, you add all associated channels to your
device.
If your system or group administrator makes any changes to a channel associated with a group to which
you belong, you will download those changes when you synchronize.
Personal channels are for use by a specific individual user. If your system administrator has enabled
personal channels, you can create personal channels for yourself.
