How do I set up a main DB that remote users can Sync to?

I"m looking for some help in how to set up a DB that 3-4 users can connect to
and syncronize data. I'm not entirely sure if we will be overwriting each
other's new information or HOPEFULLY just updating the database each time we
sync up. ANY help in how to set this up or info on how it will work once we
are syncing would really be appreciated.

You can manually sync BCM databases by exporting and importing BCM
files. Changes will be mad based on the data and time in the
ModifiedOn field; most recent is considered the best data.

As an alternative, you can designate one user's database as the master
database, and have the others use that database in BCM. If you do
that, the other users can also turn on the offline feature, which
creates a local copy of the master database. When the other machines
cannot contact the master database, they will use the offline
database, and when BCM connects to the master database again, BCM will
synchronize with the offline database.
