You can synchronise Appointments and Contacts
with
Microsoft Outlook.
The synchronisation process can be configured to:
-
Control the direction of synchronisation -
Update Outlook, Read from Outlook or both directions simultaneously
-
Update deletions
-
Handle conflicts - where the same record has been changed in both applications
you can specify how you want the synchronisation to handle the conflict.

Creating a Partnership
The first time you run the Synchronisation
program you will be asked to create a
partnership between Outlook and one of the
diaries..
You can only form a partnership with one diary at any one time.
The partnership establishes which diary you want to synchronise with. You can
change the partnership at any time by clicking the 'Partnership' button in the
Synchronisation window, deleting the unwanted partnership and adding a new one.
|
To synchronise with Outlook:
-
In either the Diaries window or the Contacts window select the Tools >
Outlook Sync menu option.
-
In the Outlook Synchronisation window select the items you want to synchronise
with.
-
Click one of the Conflict Resolution radio buttons to specify how conflicts are
to be resolved.
-
Click the Synchronise button.
|
Using the Advanced button
Use the Advanced
button to specify the direction of synchronisation and whether or not deletes
are synchronised.
|
Conflict Resolution
If an item has been changed on both systems since the last
synchronisation, the synchronisation program needs to know how to handle the
conflict.
There are 4 choices:
|
| Leave and report conflicts |
The conflicting items are not synchronised. They are reported on
screen at the end of the synchronisation process. |
| Use latest changed date |
The item that was edited last is used as the master and overwrites
the earlier item. |
| Always overwrite the
item on MyOffice |
The MyOffice item is overwritten by the Outlook item. |
| Always overwrite the item on Outlook |
The Outlook item is overwritten by the
MyOffice item.
