Zap Calendar Pro (Schedule Anything)
Manage Team Activities + Add Any Entity/Table Data + Schedule Anything
Users are more comfortable in working with date-oriented information in Calendar-like interface rather than traditional tabular format.
Zap Calendar Pro App provides a custom Calendar interface within your Dynamics 365 Sales, Customer Service & Power Apps. Any dynamics 365 data having Date-Time can be easily visualized in the Calendar.
Conceptually, this calendar interface is a visual representation of “resources” vs “events” (where both resources and events are configurable).
By default “Resources” are set as “Users” and “Events” as “Activities”. Mapping field between Resources and Events is the record owner of the activity. However you have the ability to use a different entity for Resource…a different Event… as well as a different mapping field between Resource and Event. All of this is CONFIGURABLE.
Common Use-Cases:
- Team Activity Calendar: Manage Team Appointments, Phone Calls, Tasks (& other activities)
- Share Calendar internally: Better collaborate with others by sharing calendars with selected users/teams.
- Availability Scheduling: Streamline scheduling by allowing resources to manage their availability / absence.
- Opportunity Calendar: Track Opportunities Nearing Close Date
- Service Activity Calendar: Schedule Service Activities
- Managing Equipment
- Bookings Calendar: Schedule Field-Service Work Orders
- Marketing Campaign Calendar: View your Marketing Campaign Calendar
- Leads Follow-Up Calendar
- Scheduling of Rooms for trainings
