Outlook integration

When setting up a new company, Graph Connection is the default setting and should not be changed. If PGS Outlook integration is set, it means Pryme Time was installed before Graph connection functionality was added. The PGS Outlook integration works, but it is slower. If this is the case:

  • Set up Microsoft Graph Connection
  • Change the setting to Graph Connection.
