Schedule Sync allows users to share your calendar to other calendar programs such as (but not limited to) Google Calendar, iCalendar, Outlook, and the Calendar apps on iPhone / iPad. All the appointments made on the users calendar will be placed into the desired calendar program. When new appointments are created in Envision Cloud, they will also be synced to the calendar program automatically.
The first step to sync to any of the other calendar programs is to go the Employee List and select the desired user whose calendar you wish to sync. Edit to open the employee record and scroll to the bottom of the screen. Enable the option to share their calendar, highlight the entire URL displayed, then right-click and copy the URL.
