Hi Everyone,
I have been tasked with moving a public calendar in our exchange 2010 and put into a SharePoint site calendar. I am using my outlook 2013 on my desktop and linked it to the SharePoint Calendar as well as have the public folder calendar linked. Then put both calendars into “List view” and selected all items from the PF and copied then pasted into the SharePoint Calendar. It worked like a charm and all the events came over!
I then received feedback from the department that uses the calendar that if they look at the SharePoint calendar via web browser the SharePoint category field is empty. If you link the SharePoint calendar to outlook the category values are showing up in the calendar item, but if you double click on them it is showing the value is not in the master category list. I am not sure if that is an indication that there is a problem with the entry and maybe that is the reason why it doesn’t show up in the web view.
Thinking that maybe the reason why it isnt’ showing up in the web is that the values for the custom categories used don’t match the default values in the sharepoint calendar so I went into the sharepoint calendar and found the spot to add category values and added the exact values that are not showing up. I then deleted and copied that calendar entry again, but still the category field is empty.
I am not sure how to proceed and I am hoping someone out there may have run into this before or may be able to nudge me in the right direction.
Thanks
Dean
