Once you’ve installed the Outlook Add-In, you can use it to synchronize your events and people in ACS Facility Scheduler and Access ACS with Microsoft Outlook.

Updating Your Outlook Calendar

 To update your Outlook Calendar
  1. Open Outlook.
  2. Access your calendar in Outlook.
  3. Select the ACS Church Life calendar, or the contacts list.
  4. On the Add-Ins tab, under Custom Toolbars, click Sync Events.


Synchronizing events may take a few moments, but you should see the ACS Church Life Calendar in your calendar list when it is finished. If you do not see the ACS Church Life calendar under Calendars, you may need to add it.

 

 To turn on the ACS Church Life Calendar
  1. In Outlook, go to your folder list.
  2. Click + beside Calendar.


The calendar should now display. The calendar displays all published events that are 60 days prior to the current date and 180 days into the future.

To refresh your events data, click Sync Events. This is a one-way synchronization from ACS Facility Scheduler to Outlook, so any changes to events should be made in Facility Scheduler. Events set up in Access ACS will not sync to Outlook.

Updating Your Outlook Contacts

 To update your Outlook Contacts
  1. Open Outlook.
  2. Access your contacts in Outlook.
  3. Select the ACS Church Life calendar, or the contacts list.
  4. On the Add-Ins tab, under Custom Toolbars, click Sync People.


Synchronizing people may take a few moments, but you should see the ACS Church Life Contact group under Contacts when it is finished. If you do not see the group under Contacts, you may need to add it.

 

 To add the ACS Church Life Contact group
  1. In Outlook, go to your Folder List.
  2. Click + beside Contacts.
  3. Select ACS Church Life Contact group.


The contacts should now display.

To refresh your contacts data, click Sync People. This is a one-way synchronization from Access ACS to Outlook, so any changes to individual records should be made in Access ACS. Individuals entered in Facility Scheduler will not synchronize to Outlook.
