Importing Data Into Your Group Calendar
Often you will have calendar data already entered into another program or format and you would like to get this data into your Directra calendar without having to retype it.
- Make sure that the data you want to enter is in iCal format. Your current calendar program will have an option to export the data in iCal format.
- From the Calendar tab select Import Calendar.
- On the Import Calendar pop-up window do the following:
- Find the desired iCal file on your computer.
- Tell Directra how to interpret the calendar entries. If your Group is a team and you are importing a game schedule, select Game, then select the type of game. If you are importing practices, select Practice. Otherwise select Event. All imported entries will be imported in the same way, i.e. as a game, practice or event.
- Click Import the iCal File.
If for any reason the data does not import as you would like you can undo this operation. View your monthly calendar or calendar list, hover over Options and select Delete Imported Calendar Items.
Tip
If you add more data to your other calendar and want to update Directra you can just import the entire calendar again. Directra will not create duplicate entries for items your have already imported.
