Calendar syncing lets you view Fieldified scheduled work alongside the rest of your calendar. Use Calendar Settings to set up and manage your calendar connection.
Overview
Fieldified calendar sync is a one-way sync from Fieldified to your external calendar. You can see Fieldified appointments in another calendar app, but personal calendar events do not appear in Fieldified.
The Fieldified Schedule remains the source of truth for dispatching, editing, and completing work.
Calendar apps refresh subscribed calendars on their own schedule, so updates may not appear instantly.
