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.

New in DayBack: Unscheduled Items

April 21, 2023

DayBack can now render a list of items needing to be scheduled. Users can drag items from this list into the calendar when they’ve found an open resource. This list appears to the right of the calendar in a special sidebar, and FileMaker developers have a lot of control over which items show there and what they look like. Customize with Calc Fields in FileMaker An item is...

Comments in FileMaker Calendar

January 22, 2023

Inline Notes in DayBack Calendar The latest DayBack extension adds an icon to your events when there is a comment present that matches your criteria. You can use your own FileMaker field for the comments themselves, and surface an icon or an icon-and-an-editor so folks can make changes without leaving the calendar.  If you’re using a FileMaker layout for your events inside DayBack, maybe you’d want to render comments inside a portal...
