Calendar Settings (My Profile) - Step-by-Step Guide


  1. Connect Your Calendar:

    • Scroll to the Calendar Settings section within My Profile.
    • Depending on your usage of LANA, connect your personal calendar (Google or Outlook) to ensure no double booking occurs.



  2. Syncing with your Personal/Busie Calendars & Video Conferencing Platform Integration:

    • If you're using a job management software calendar (e.g., synced to Google, Outlook, iCloud Calendar & Calendly (Currently on Beta Testing) ), connecting it here will centralize appointments.

    • Connect your Zoom or Microsoft Teams account to your LANA profile. This way, whenever an appointment is booked on a calendar assigned to you in LANA, a unique meeting link will be automatically generated.
       
  3. Conflict Calendar

    • Double-Booking Prevention: Link additional calendars to detect and prevent potential double bookings. This is particularly useful if you’re managing multiple calendars (e.g., multiple Google calendars), ensuring you’re never overbooked.

  4. Adjust Calendar Availability Settings:

    • In the Calendar Settings, customize settings to:
      • Block Out Unavailable Times: Specify days or times you’re not available, such as blocking out specific day/s.
      • Adjust Gaps Between Appointments: Set intervals between appointments to fit your schedule.
      • Show Individual Availability: Each user can show their unique availability, which is beneficial for team scheduling.


Calendars (Advanced Settings)


  • One-Way Sync: Blocks events from the linked calendar as occupied slots in LANA, ideal for managing visibility without generating new contacts.


  • Two-Way Sync: Converts guest information from linked calendar events into LANA contacts, seamlessly turning scheduled meetings into system appointments and creating a more integrated experience.

Using these profile options in LANA Software allows you to maintain a seamless workflow, efficiently manage your availability and notifications, and keep all personal, company, and calendar information up to date for optimal performance and interaction on the platform.
