In
this example, there are two groups and three PCs
- Primary Group
(default Calendar folders on Home and Partner PCs)
- Business Group
(A calendar folder called "Business Events" on Home PC, and
a calendar folder called "Top Accounts" on Office PC)
- The sync is two-way
between Home PC and Partner PC
- The sync is one-way
from Office PC to Home PC
Steps:
- Install SyncCenter
on Office PC, Partner PC and Home PC
- On Home PC, SyncCenter
-> Sync Options -> Calendar -> Folders, select "Sync Selected
folders".
- Then, select the
default Calendar folder (e.g. called Calendar) and the folder called
"Business Events ".
- Then, sync your
Home PC with VCO. All the events in default folder and "Business
Events" folder will be synced to VCO.
- In Partner PC,
SyncCenter -> Sync Options -> Calendar -> Folders, select "Sync
Default Folder Only".
- Then, sync the
Partner PC with VCO. The events in Home PC default calendar folder will
be synced to Partner PC default folder. (Remark, the events in "Business
Events" will not by synced to Partner PC). The events in Partner
PC default folder will be synced to VCO.
- Sync VCO with
Home PC. The items in Partner PC default calendar folder will be synced
to Home PC default folder.
- On Office PC,
SyncCenter, General tab -> Synchronization Direction, select "Sync
from Outlook to Mobile Only". In Sync Options -> Calendar ->
Folders , select "Sync Selected folders".
- Select the folder
called "Top Accounts". Keep all the other folders un-selected.
- In VCO, Sync screen,
check option "Only copy folders structure", and then sync
with Office PC. It will create the folders in VCO.
- Then, in the VCO
Folders screen, expand the "Business Events" group. Then,
click the "Link" icon and add the "Top Accounts"
folder to the "Business Events" group.
- Then, sync VCO
with Office PC again. The events in office Outlook will be synced to
VCO.
- Then, sync with
Home PC again, the events on Office "Top Accounts" folder
will be sync to Home PC "Business Events" folder.
- Remember, in VCO,
you cannot add a non-empty folder to a group (the folders on PC doesn't
need to be empty). Therefore, you need to sync the folder structure
on Office PC to VCO first, then add the folder to the group, and then
sync again.
- By default, VCOrganizer
Calendar displays all the events. To display the events in "Business
Events" only, select the Filter, and select the "Business
Events" Group.
Hints:
If both folders on
Home PC and Office PC are non-empty, the initial sync may take longer
as VCO tries to match the events between Home PC and Office PC.
To avoid any duplicates
and let the initial sync runs faster, if possible, it's suggested to have
one of the folder is empty. For example, you can create a new Calendar
folder in Home PC called "Business Events", then sync events
from Office "Top Accounts" folder to "Business Events"
folder on Home PC.
