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...
DayBack for FileMaker allows you to drag-select multiple events on the calendar and drag to reschedule them all at once. But what if you’d like to do something besides changing their date or time? You may want to delete them all at once or change their status. Now you can add buttons to the calendar that will operate against the selected group of events. In this example, we’ve...

Now DayBack gives your dispatchers the confidence to make those promises by visualizing drive times and distances in your schedule.

Earlier versions of the script were for DayBack Classic, and now we’ve added example code for the new DayBack for FileMaker 19.

Is this your DayBack story? You have users who are primarily using one calendar view for a long time, and another user updates an event. In a busy scheduling environment–like a call center–how does everyone know that something has changed? Normally other users won’t see these changes until they change a filter, change their view, or click the calendar’s refresh button. This can slow folks down or poorly...
