Calendars

4 articles

I added a user and they cannot see any shared company calendars.

After adding a new user, you will need to ADD them to any shared calendars you want them to have access to. Only Admins have the ability to add Users to shared calendars, and update user access to any shared calendar.

Does your Calendar integrate with Outlook, iCal, Google, etc.

Nope. There are several reasons, but the main one is security. To set up the integration, your network would need to open ports on your servers, to the outside world. This is very dangerous, as it allows viruses and malware to potentially find those ports and infiltrate your network. Trust me, your IT dept does not want that.  If you would like to use another calendar system, you have two options: enter the information in that system and in our InOutBoard.com application, or an Admin can turn OFF the Calendar option for ALL users on the site in the Settings area. Note: if Calendars are turned off, the ability to create future status changes will not be available.

Adding a Start and End Time on events.

When adding an event, for the Start and End time, click on the clock next to the time, and then click on the hour or minute number to choose a new time. You can also use the up and down arrows. Make sure to select AM or PM on your times as well. 

Can I set up a time for my status to change automatically?

Yes, you can set up events on your MY Calendar, and set up automatic status changes for those. 

  1. Click Calendar, then click the NEW button. 
  2. Then make sure to select My Calendar from the drop down list.
  3. Enter in your subject and the start date/time and end date/time. 
  4. If you want the event to be recurring, click the drop down box “Does not repeat” and choose Daily, Weekly, or Monthly. Then select how often, and the days of the week, as needed. You can set an end date for your recurring event, if desired.
  5. For event details you can enter in a Location (free form text field), a calendar category, and if you would like a time reminder sent to you. 
  6. You may also select a Starting Status change, and an Ending Status Change. When the event begins, your status on the Status Board will change automatically to the status you have selected. When the event ends, your status will change again to the Ending status code. 

The description field is also free-form text. Click Save after verifying all your details.
