Calendar integration: introduction
Sage People integrates with the Microsoft Outlook calendar to add approved absences booked in Sage People, and to add interview details booked using the Recruit Outlook interview scheduler.
Calendar integration enables users to get visibility of Sage People events such as absences and interviews, providing employees with the ability to work effectively on the go, using the tools and devices they use every day.
When vacations and other absences are approved through WX, mobile, or Teams, Sage People blocks out the absence in the team member's Outlook Calendar, and sends an invite for the absence event to the approving manager.
For Recruit interview scheduler, when an interview is scheduled, interviewers and candidates are sent a calendar invite that includes interview details.
When events are updated or canceled, the calendar invite is deleted or updated automatically, eliminating the need for users to manage their calendar events manually.
