Field Mapping

Navigate to the Source No 1 layout in DayBack.fmp12 and follow the instructions on the layout to map the fields there to the relevant fields in your events table.
A few tips on field mapping:
All fields on the Source No layout need to be mapped, and there are six tabs with fields on them. For any fields that don't have a corresponding field in your events table, map DBk_Unused in their place.
Events with just a single date should have a start date: if your event has just an end date the calendar will fail. The same goes for times: if there is only one time, make it the start time.
Don't use calcs for things like the dates, times, or resources. The calendar wants to edit these values when you drag items around, and it can't edit calcs. Use auto-enter calculations instead if you must.
Contacts & Projects
If you are using a contacts or projects table you will want to map those too. Navigate to the "Related Source No 1" layout and map your contact fields. Then you can navigate to "Related Source No 2" and map your project fields if necessary.
Once you've mapped these fields you can run the script "Upon Opening" in DayBack.fmp12 and if you haven't made any mistakes you should see your events in the calendar! If you're seeing errors you might skim through the steps above again to see if you missed anything, or checkout our troubleshooting tips.
