Import OFBiz WorkEffort into Outlook calendar

Gil Portenseigne
Hi,

I have a simple need, i want to find a way to import a group of party
WorkEffort into Outlook.

I'm not familiar with Outlook so i wanted to know if someone already
managed to do such needs and how ?

I looked into mails, wiki and Jira, I only found
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-4247, and Icalendar
Integration :
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBENDUSER/iCalendar+Integration

I guess there is a way to import .ical files into Outlook, but if there
is some other experience in the community, it would be nice.

Best Regards

Gil

The iCalendar integration would be the way to go. Outlook can read
iCalendar data.

Sincerely the Funambol integration I did from Opentaps (OFBIZ-4247) was a pain. I had no ideas it would be so when I started. I'm not even sure it
still works with current trunk or last releases.

I agree with Adrian it should be better to rewrite it from scratch. It could be then contributed and integrated in OFBiz.
