Synchronization of Dates

Outlook Integration Application

Once the ‘Dates’ tab has been set up in the Outlook Configuration screen (see Calendar, Tasks, Professionals and QuikDocs Tabs), data will begin to flow in real time between Trustee Suite and Outlook.

Dates synchronization originates from Trustee Suite and is sent to Outlook.  After a date is created in Outlook from Trustee Suite, a linkage is established between Outlook and Trustee Suite and any changes made to that date in Outlook will be kept in sync with the date in Trustee Suite.

Note:  Date entries that originate in Outlook are not synchronized into Trustee Suite because Outlook cannot determine the appropriate case information in Trustee Suite with which to synchronize.

Use the table below to see how updates in Trustee Suite or Outlook affect the synchronization of Dates:

  • Action Item – This column describes where and how the data is first changed.
  • Date Change – A ‘Yes’/’No’ in the Dates column describes if the action item makes a corresponding change to the Date in the other system.
Date Action Item Date Change
Added in Trustee Suite Yes
Changed in Trustee Suite Yes
Deleted in Trustee Suite Yes
Added in Outlook No
Changed in Outlook Yes
Deleted in Outlook No

When a Date is synchronized from Trustee Suite, the following fields are mapped into Outlook:

Example Trustee Suite Field Outlook Field

1

Case Number Subject

2

Date Name Subject

3

Date Value Start Time & End Time

EXAMPLE – The image below is an example of how a Trustee Suite Date would appear in the Outlook Calendar Details screen (the example numbers in the table above correspond with the purple numbered comment boxes in the screenshot below).
