To-Do Lists in FileMaker – New in DayBack Calendar

June 10, 2024

Now create and manage FileMaker to-do lists directly from the Unscheduled Items sidebar in DayBack Calendar. Our latest extension brings to-do behavior to any FileMaker table. Like unscheduled items, this behavior is based on a new checkbox field in your table, so some or all of your records in the table can be treated as to-dos. Mark your to-do’s done as you complete them, or drag them into the…

Improved Resource Selection

May 1, 2024

We’ve made some big changes to how you filter and assign resources when editing events in DayBack.

Watch a video of the new behaviors and learn more here: Adding Multiple Resources to an Item. If you haven’t looked at your resource field mapping in…

Suggesting Appointment Slots

March 12, 2024

Show Available Slots that Match Multiple Criteria Schedulers often look for gaps in their schedules to find the open resources for each opportunity. But sometimes, gaps don’t tell the whole story. You may have invisible criteria like skill-matching, cleaning requirements, or multiple resources to schedule at once. Or you may be on the phone with an opportunity and must suggest available times as quickly as possible. In these…

New Longer Timescales for DayBack

December 19, 2023

Resource Scheduling Swimlanes You can now extend the pivoted scheduling view in DayBack to show items by week instead of solely by day. This lets the swimlanes in your schedule present your resource allocations for up to 23 weeks at a time (almost six months). In the screenshot above, most installation and training appointments take a whole week to complete. But a few items just take a few…

January 16, 2023

SeedCode is closed for our holiday break from December 19th through the end of the year. We’ll have folks available in case of emergencies and will reply to non-emergency emails with a short note before we resume work when we’re back in January. The team here wishes all our customers a restful holiday and every success in the New Year!

Send Calendar Invitations from FileMaker with Google Calendar

December 11, 2022

We’ve been sending lots of calendar invitations from FileMaker as part of our DayBack deployments. The best workflow we’ve found invites the recipient to an event rather than creating the event right on the recipient’s calendar. This approach offers many advantages, including polling for the recipient’s response to see if they have accepted the invitation (screenshot below) Get the Unlocked Example File Jason Young packaged this into an…
