Invalidate mobile device cache Determines if the data cached on the mobile device is marked as needing an update, after a user submits their changes.

A Transaction Services-enabled document that is pre-cached runs in the background, and its results are stored on the mobile device on which it is executed, improving the speed in which the document runs. You can choose to update document results cached on a mobile device after the user submits their changes, by using this setting to mark a document's results as in need of updating.

If the document is defined as pre-cached, the document is automatically pre-cached each time the user submits their changes. If the document is not defined as pre-cached, the document is automatically executed using data cached on the Intelligence Server the next time the document runs or is executed against the data source if no cached data is available. See the Strategy Mobile Administration Help. for background information on pre-caching.

To have the document pre-cached each time the user submits their changes, select the Invalidate Mobile Device Cache checkbox.

To allow the user to submit their changes without marking the data cached on the mobile device as in need of updating, clear the Invalidate Mobile Device Cache checkbox.
