Binary Sync per Folder - empower 8.5 or higher

empower 8.5 brings the possibility to configure individual folders either globally or per user so that binary data is already downloaded to the client during synchronization. Administrators (for the specific folder) can additionally define folders that are always downloaded for all users. In addition, each user can define folders for himself that should be offline accessible. The setting is inherited by all sub-folders.
These two settings are independent of each other - as soon as one of them is set for a folder, the binary data will be downloaded during sync (i.e. a user cannot deactivate a company-wide synchronization for himself).
