Installation and User Notes: Posted May 25, 2011 Latest version is v 3.0 build: 3114


What's New
  • Sync Contacts, Tasks and Appointments consistent and "in-sync" between Microsoft Outlook
    and PlanPlus™ Online even as new information is added and edited from within either
    application
  • Compatible with Microsoft Outlook 2010, 2007, & 2003
  • Sync Priority and Rank between PlanPlus for Microsoft Outlook or High, Medium & Low from
    Outlook
What you should know before Sync
  • If you have multiple computers, each with their own Outlook, you will have to choose one to
    begin the sync. Syncing from different Outlook data sources may lead to duplicates in each database.
  • Outlook Contact information is considered to be your private data and is flagged as private upon
    being brought into PlanPlus™ Online. In order to share those Contacts with other users in the
    account, the Contact records will have to be de-selected as private. A "private" Contact attribute
    will appear next to the private Contact's name in the Contact edit window.
  • If you are a PlanPlus™ for Outlook user, SYNC needs to differentiate between Daily and Master
    tasks. For SYNC to do this, you must visit the "Startup Page" inside PlanPlus™ Online Setup
    Wizard, Personal Preferences Calendar/Tasks at the bottom of the page "Sync With" Select
    PlanPlus™ for Outlook.
  • The PlanPlus Online Sync Utility will not sync PlanPlus for Outlook Mission Statement, Goals,
    Compass and Daily Notes.

ATTENTION: If you have previously imported Contact information and then perform SYNC, you will get duplicate Contact records. If duplicate Contact records appear, click here to review a procedure for removing duplicate Contact records.

Notice in some cases where users of the sync utility have used earlier versions and may have installed the utility in a directory different than the default it is possible to introduce duplicates into the database. It is advisable to make sure that any previous installations are removed.
