Calendar sync between NetSuite and Microsoft Outlook

It is possible to synch the dashboard calendar in NetSuite with Outlook Exchange accounts 

Netsuite 

We can share your NetSuite calendar with devices and applications that support iCal format internet calendars, including iPhones, Android devices, and Microsoft Outlook. This enables you or others to view (but not edit) your current NetSuite calendar outside of the NetSuite application and does not require login credentials. 

First, we must set up your calendar for sharing. This creates URLs that you can use to share your calendar. 

Step 1: In your NetSuite account, go to Activities > Setup > Calendar Preference

Step 2: Click the Preferences subtab. 

Step 3: Under Calendar Sharing, check the Public Calendar box if you want to share the events on your calendar that are public. 

Step 4: Check the Private Calendar box if you want to share all of your calendar events. 

Step 5: Click Save

When you check these boxes, URLs are automatically generated. You can distribute these URLs to anyone you want to share your calendars with. You can reset these URLs at any time if you want to require the use of a new URL to view your calendar. After resetting these URLs, you must communicate the new URLs to those you’d like to share your calendar with. 

Microsoft Outlook 

To add an internet calendar to Outlook

Step 1: Open your calendar in Outlook. 

Step 2: Right-click My Calendars. 

Step 3: Select Add Calendar > From Internet

Step 4: Paste the URL generated on the Calendar Preferences page in NetSuite. 

Step 5: Click OK
