Sync Microsoft Outlook Calendar with MONESQ

Introduction

You can integrate your MONESQ Calendar with your Outlook Calendar so you always have your MONESQ events, tasks and deadlines with you.

How it works

Once your integration is set-up, you'll notice a new calendar in your Outlook calendar. All of your events, tasks and deadlines in MONESQ are synchronized with this calendar and show up anywhere you can view your Outlook calendar.  Syncing is two-way, so whether you create calendar entries in MONESQ or Outlook Calendar, they will appear in both places.  Please note: While MONESQ offers two-way syncing, MONESQ is intended to be your point of origin for calendar entries. Deadlines and tasks created in MONESQ appear as events in Outlook Calendar.  If you wish to create deadlines and tasks in Outlook Calendar and have them sync to MONESQ, you must create them as events in Outlook Calendar.  While these will be visible in your MONESQ calendar, they will appear as events, not deadlines or tasks.
