Adding actions is very simple, click on “Add action” or directly on the time or day you wish to schedule the action. After that you only have to fill in the quick add form. Remember that these forms schedule the basic actions without linking them to the deals, for this you must use the “Add action” button that you will find at the top or also by clicking on the “Details…” button directly on the quick add form that you have already created previously.

If you want to edit an action you can do any of the following options:

  1. Click on the action block you have created and edit it.
  2. If you are changing the time you can simply drag it to the new time or date.

Remember that in the upper right corner you can navigate between the different calendars, the arrows will help you move between dates, however you can do it with the down arrow to find an exact day or go directly to today with the “Today” button.

Always keep in mind that you can view other users’ calendars if and only if you have visibility over their actions and they have granted you permissions. This can be done in the same way at the top right in the “Filter” drop-down button > Select the user’s actions.

I have several calendars, how can I synchronize them?

The first thing to note is that this action synchronizes actions that are owned by the same user.

Let’s get started! In Pipedrive you can sync your favorite calendar account no matter if it is Google, Outlook, Exchange or Office. Doing so is very simple, just go to Personal Preferences > Calendar Sync > Add New Account.

Remember to have at hand the access data of your calendar account to synchronize since it will ask you for the address and accesses of the same.

Once your email has been synchronized, you have the ability to select how you want Pipedrive and that calendar to relate. There are two options:

1. Bilateral synchronization
With this selection, the actions you create in Pipedrive will be automatically synchronized with the calendar you have linked, so the changes affect both calendars.

2. One-sided synchronization
In this selection the actions created in Pipedrive are synchronized in the linked calendar, but if you create events in that linked calendar, no actions will be created in Pipedrive.

Remember that for another user, administrator or normal, to have visibility of your action, they need visibility for all elements linked to actions.
