Schedule Appointments

Each row represents an attendee and the view extends horizontally with the hours of the day.

When attendees are added to the appointment the schedule view will automatically load their appointments for that day and overlay them on the view. This allows you to identify when a mutually free space is available in the calendar.

Invite Attendees

Attendees can be added to the appointment when in Edit mode. 

Attendees can be Users, contacts or Teams in Gold-Vision 

Required – tick this box if the attendee is required for the appointment 

Delete – select the bin icon if you wish to remove an attendee. 

Accept Appointments

If you are an attendee of an appointment and not the owner/organiser then you have the option of accepting, declining or tentatively accepting it from within Gold-Vision. Gold-Vision automatically recognises if the current user is an attendee of an appointment and displays a set of acceptance buttons to them accordingly. Regardless of whether you accept an appointment from within Gold-Vision or within a third party calendar the attendance data will be kept in sync.

Calendar Synchronisation

When you have calendar synchronisation enabled, appointments made in Gold-Vision appear in your calendar (e.g. Outlook or Google Calendar) and appointments made directly in your calendar appear in Gold-Vision. Either a two way or one way synchronisation can be set up by your Gold-Vision Administrator. When appointments are saved against the relevant Account in Gold-Vision:

• Invites will be sent via Outlook / Google Calendar – depending on your default calendar and synchronisation setup.
• The appointment will appear in Outlook / Google once synchronised.
