Managing your notifications and alerts
BlackBerry Work provides a number of automatic indicators and alerts to let you know who’s available and who’s not, when new mail arrives, whether or not you’ve read a message, its level of importance, and when a meeting or appointment is soon to begin.
Notification Presence
New and unread mail Meeting/Appointment
Description
The Presence indicator shows you the current online status of contacts in your
organization who have an active account on Microsoft Lync. If your enterprise
doesn’t use Microsoft Lync for instant messaging, the presence indicator is
not displayed.
The Presence indicator shows the the following statuses.
· Green: Available · Red or Orange: Busy · Red or Bar: Do Not Disturb ·
Yellow: Away · Gray: Offline
Unread email messages are displayed with a blue subject and the sender’s name
in bold and black. After you open a message the sender’s name and subject are
displayed in gray.
A calendar icon next to the sender’s name indicates that the message is a
meeting invitation or related to a calendar event.
Manage sounds and notifications
BlackBerry Work for iOS relies on Apple Push Notification Service (APNS) to
receive changes (new or updates) to your inbox, contacts, and calendar. This
provides near real-time updates to the client. Both foreground and background
notification processing work in the same way. Each time you open the app, your
mailbox is synchronized. However, unless your organization uses the BlackBerry
Enterprise Mobility Server (BEMS), iOS users do not receive near real-time
updates to their work email account.
For information about how to set notifications for Mail and Calendar in
BlackBerry Work, see Change BlackBerry Work for iOS settings
To troubleshoot:
1. On your device, in Settings open Notifications for BlackBerry Work and
enable your preferences. 2. Tap Settings > General > Background App Refresh
and make sure that BlackBerry Work is allowed.
Your device updates frequently used apps more often. Allow up to a day of
normal use on BlackBerry Work for your device to determine the update
interval.

your administrator has designated for offline access. If you have appropriate
permissions, you can edit the files designated as offline by your
administrator. Protected files cannot be marked offline. · Bookmarks: Files
that you bookmarked · Pending Uploads: Files you imported and/or worked on
offline that are waiting to be uploaded to a File Share or SharePoint site
Access your Local Docs
BlackBerry Work provides a container on your mobile device called Local Docs
that you can use to securely store your enterprise documents separately from
other apps and directories on the device. Your local docs will typically
originate as file attachments in a BlackBerry Work email, files transferred
from a File Share, Microsoft SharePoint, or Box site, or photographs imported
from your native Photos repository or taken with your device camera. The Local

| Managing your documents | 33
Managing online repositories
An online repository can be either a collection of files and folders on an
enterprise server or network attached storage (NAS) that is available to all
authorized users, or an enterprise Microsoft SharePoint or Box site available
to authorized users. Your BlackBerry Work administrator configures your root
access to file shares and any that apply to your mobile account, although
within the access permitted, you can define additional sources by specifying a
network path and giving it a new data source name. The same is true of
additional SharePoint and Box sites as long as you are an authorized user of
the site you attempt to define as a new data source.
For file access issues and to request additional permissions, contact your
BlackBerry Work administrator or your IT department.
Access to your enterprise SharePoint and Box sites gives you even more
channels for near-instant mobile collaboration with your enterprise team
members. Heavily used by organizations large and small for on-demand file
sharing and updating, SharePoint and Box are web application frameworks
developed that integrate intranet, content management, and document management
onto a holistic platform.
SharePoint and Box are cloud solutions that tie all your users’ computers and
mobile devices together and allow them all to communicate and synchronize
their efforts. The basic goal is to make it possible for an organization with
a hundred or even a thousand employees spread all over the region or the world
to work together with the same level of agility and coordination as a company
with ten people working out of a single office.
You access and manage your SharePoint and Box data sources in the same way as
your enterprise file shares. However, with SharePoint and Box, if you have
been granted the corresponding permissions, you can check-in and check-out
files. For guidance on the fundamentals of multi-author sharing, consult your
SharePoint or Box documentation.
Browse repositories
The Local Docs repository on your device will be empty after BlackBerry Work
activation.

repository.

what the duration is. If the files are uploading when the connection to the
network is lost, the upload resumes when the connection is restored. If your
administrator doesn’t set a time limit and the file upload is manually paused
when the network connection is lost, you must manually continue the file
upload after the connection is restored. BEMS 2.12 or later is required for
uploads to resume. If uploads restart instead of resume, contact your
administrator to confirm the version of BEMS being used with your account.
Remember that no one else will see your revisions and feedback until you

Data storage and aging
Personal information and email on your iOS device is stored indefinitely, with
the following limitations and exceptions: · The storage limit for BlackBerry
Work data (mail, calendar, and contacts) depends on available memory on
your device. In controlled test environments, as many as 5,000 emails and
3,000 contacts were successfully synchronized with the user’s Microsoft
Outlook account. · In initially synchronizing your Calendar, the timeframe is
set to the past three months plus two years into the future. There is no
practical limit on the size of your Calendar. However, depending on the
device, performance will degrade with a very large set of data. · Email,
Contact, and Calendar data is stored in a database, except for the body and
attachments to emails, which are stored in an external flat file · Because
Contacts data is stored in the database, there is no practical limit on the
number of contacts. But, again, very large data sets will tend to degrade
performance, especially on older devices. · There is no cache for attachments
and therefore no limit on the size of an attachment. · BlackBerry Work
synchronizes the entire body of emails without limitations on size, although
synching and attachment downloads will fail when the device runs out of
storage space. Old data is not purged automatically; you must purge old data
manually by permanently deleting it. If your device ever runs out of space for
new contacts, you must delete existing contacts to make room for the new ones.
Be sure to do this from the device, not from your desktop business account. To
preserve contacts before deleting them from the device, use the Export feature
on your desktop or laptop. Note that you must first export the data from your
business account and your desktop or laptop before deleting it from your
mobile device.
