Synchronize

The Synchronize dialog box lets you manually synchronize your Outlook or Lotus Notes calendar with your calendar in the My Calendar portlet.

When synchronization occurs, Collaboration:

Exports the events, tasks and milestones that you created since the last synchronization to your Outlook or Lotus Notes calendar. The following table lists the items that are exported from your Calendar and explains how they appear in your Outlook or Lotus Notes calendar:

Calendar Item	How Exported Item Appears in Groupware Calendar
Project Event	Appointment with the same start time and end time as the project event.
Task	All-day appointment on the ending day of the task.
Milestone	All-day appointment.

Updates any appointments in your Outlook or Lotus Notes calendar if they were originally exported from your Calendar events, tasks or milestones.

Click Finish after you have configured the following:

Click	To...
All calendar events in the My Calendar portlet	Synchronize all of the appointments in your Outlook or Lotus Notes calendar to the events, tasks and milestones that are in the selected projects.
Only calendar events from X to X	Synchronize only the appointments in your Outlook or Lotus Notes calendar to the events, tasks and milestones that fall within the date range. To change the date range, go back to your Calendar and alter your view to display only the dates that you want to synchronize (for example, a different month or only one week of dates instead of one month of dates).
Remove deleted project events from my Outlook/Lotus Notes calendar	Optional. Remove the appointments on your Outlook or Lotus Notes calendar that were previously created from Events, Tasks or Milestones and no longer exist in Collaboration.
