Overview

soSIMPLE Calendar provides a quick, easy way of adding a drag and drop calendar to your solution.

Try this in FileMaker:

• Schedule new events just by pointing and dragging
• Easily move an event to another time by dragging it there. Existing events will politely slide out the way for you.
• Clients can schedule appointments for themselves right in their web browser while inside staff can see the exact same view right within FileMaker
• Side-by-side appointment and conflicts show themselves
• Resources can be scheduled side-by-side or top-to-bottom. Change a resource by clicking and dragging.

By harnessing FileMaker’s web viewer technology, FileMaker Server capabilities, and some fancy ajax footwork, you can now seamlessly add a beautiful, visual calendar not only to your FileMaker solution, but to your web site, your ical software, and yes, even your iPad.

Plus, we’ve spent a lot of time building a calendar builder and customization interface, to keep it easy. You can use our default calendar interface, or customize it further using preset templates, guided drop down menu selections or custom CSS.

soSIMPLE Calendar makes it simple to:

• Add a drag & drop calendar to your FileMaker solution without any coding
• Implement the same calendar on your web site
• Interact dynamically and directly with FileMaker data – no need to import or sync
• Trigger a script to handle any action from your calendar (create, edit, delete) or have the update happen without any FileMaker scripting.
• Subscribe and feed data to Google, Outlook, iCal, etc.
• View multiple FileMaker files, or other calendars, at the same time
• See and manage multiple resources (rooms, people, etc.)
• Background Ajax processing is fast and doesn’t stop you from changing layouts, or running other scripts while the screen updates.
• Works on the iPad using FileMaker Go and any browser
• Clear instructions during all parts of implementing and customizing your calendar
• Lots of control over calendar behavior

FileMaker Server 9 or later (Why? See our FAQ.)

FileMaker Pro 9 or later

We recommend FileMaker Pro Advanced so you can more easily copy and paste scripts into your solution, but that’s not necessary, and we’ll show you how do it with FileMaker Pro.
