Hello, I just started using Attain 3.6 and tried to get tasks from Navision to Outlook. Problem is that I cannot get any records from Navision to-dos to Outlook Calendar. Is something that should work?
you need to setup a user id and login with this user id into the database, then setup a salesperson and on the salesperson card specify user id and outlook folders to sync to, then run the sync from salespersoncard button functions. Remember it is only the contacts/to-do’s that has that salesperson on it that gets synched.
hello, I have excatly the same problem. I already have setup the salesperson as you suggest. But when I run the “outlook syncronization” it does not work. Debugging I find that the automation server called OLHandler is missing in some codeunit (cant remember which). br Anders
Hi Anders I followed these instructions:
quote:
To set up Outlook Integration properties: Click Relationship Management, Salespeople. The Salesperson/Purchaser Card appears. On the Outlook Integration tab, place a check mark in the Enable Synchronization checkbox. All the other fields on the tab are activated. In the Attain User ID field, specify the ID of the salesperson. In the Outlook Profile Name field, specify the name of the Outlook profile by clicking the drill-down button and selecting from the list. Click Browse next to the Outlook Contacts Folder Name field. In Microsoft Outlook, a message may appear asking you to allow access to your mailbox for external applications. Allow access for the time you need and click Yes. Select the corresponding Outlook folder. Click Browse next to the Outlook Tasks Folder Name field. In Microsoft Outlook, a message may appear asking you to allow access to your mail box for external applications. Allow access for the time you need and click Yes. Select the corresponding Outlook folder. Click Browse next to the Outlook Calendar Folder Name field. In Microsoft Outlook, a message may appear asking you to allow access to your mail box for external applications. Allow access for the time you need and click Yes. Select the corresponding Outlook folder.
I had to install the Collaboration Data Objects for Outlook but apart from that it works fine [:D]
Hello again, I have succeeded. I found an error in REPORT 5171: Constant Text001 was wrong, should be set to #1# to allow for a Window.update(1,1) in the PreDataItem of the Syncronization Entry Dataitem. The OLHandler did not seem to be the problem afterall, but only looked like that because the object could not compile. Have a nice weekend. Anders
Øhm, the error was found in the danish version, of course[:D]. /anders
Hi Anders That will obviously explain why I did not encounter it! [:D]
