Syncing your external calendar (Google, Outlook, or iCloud) in HoneyBook will help you stay on top of your day-to-day and make sure that a minor scheduling error doesn’t lead to a major missed opportunity.
What will sync between calendars
If you've turned on the two-way sync, here's what will appear on your HoneyBook and external calendars:
External calendar meetings: visible in your HoneyBook calendar, but only in the synced person’s calendar (not on team members’ calendars)
HoneyBook meetings: visible in your external calendar. HoneyBook meetings are sessions that have been scheduled through the HoneyBook Scheduler tool
Tentative HoneyBook projects: visible in your external calendar. Tentative projects are any that have not yet been booked (no client signatures and no payments made)
Booked HoneyBook projects: visible in your external calendar. Booked projects are any project that have either a signed contract or the first payment (retainer) paid
📣 Note
To mark a project as booked in your calendar, you need a signed contract or a payment from your client (aka a booked file). Manually marking a project as booked from the Calendar is not possible.
What will not sync between calendars
Payments: this includes unpaid and overdue payments
Archived projects: no information from archived projects will be visible, including payment dates
TBD projects: if a project does not have a project date associated with it, it will not be visible in your HoneyBook calendar
📣 Note
Edits made to a HoneyBook event in your external calendar will not update the event in your HoneyBook calendar, even if calendars are synced. You can't edit external calendar events through your HoneyBook calendar.
