Configuring Synchronization

Configuring Synchronization

Vine sync has to be properly configured. After that there is no need for any special actions from you. The replication will work automatically on the Vine server and you will see Vine events appear in your Office Calendar (or other client applications you use to connect to your Exchange/Domino server) and events from Office appear in your Vine calendar.

You do not need to be logged into any Vine client applications for the replication to work.

For ActiveSync, the Vine administrator might need to configure the sync in Vine Web server if your company is using its own Vine servers.
