Mapping SuiteProjects Pro Booking Type to Exchange Calendar Event "Show As" Designation
By default, when you export bookings from SuiteProjects Pro to Exchange user mailboxes, the resulting calendar event will show as Free time. You can map booking types in SuiteProjects Pro to specific "Show As" designation for the calendar event in Exchange user mailboxes so that the resulting calendar event shows as Free, Tentative, Busy, or Out of Office, depending on the booking type. You can also exclude bookings from the export, depending on the booking type.
To be able to map the booking type to Exchange calendar event "Show as" designation, create the following custom field for the Booking Type record type in SuiteProjects Pro. If you do not select a value for a booking type in SuiteProjects Pro, the calendar event shows as Free time.
After you create the custom field, go to Administration > Application Settings > Resources > Booking Types and edit each booking type record, selecting a "Show as" designation for the exported calendar events or Do not export.
For more information about creating the custom fields, see Custom Fields and Custom Field Types.
