Location of Replica on Laptop

If I have created a Replica in Nomad on my Laptop, of a DB on our Server, it allows me to work offline just like in Notes.

But, my understanding is that I have to create (read download) a Replica on each Laptop in our company using the "File/Application/Make Available Offline" command. If I have a DB that is measured in GB, I would like to be able to simple take a copy of the NSF on the Server and paste it on each of the Laptops... much faster than replicating.

I'm told that is not possible. Does anyone else have that requirement/preference and know how to do it?

Thx in advance.

This is not currently possible as there isn't a way to upload/copy/add a file from the operating system to the browser's sandbox file space for Nomad.

I doubt this is a common scenario, but you can always open an idea and see how many votes it gets (and that way, HCL will see the request and votes too):
