Event Synchronization

For events scheduled in PCPlus11 further out that 14 days, how can we include these events in the synchronization process to post our future or recurring events to a Google Web calendar?

Also, the term synchronization should infer that the web google calendar and the PCPlus11 Event calendar would be the same, but PCPlus11 only 'pushes' events to the web. How can we cause events on the web site google calender to be downloaded to PCPlus11.

These two issues are preventing us from using PCPlus11 Events Calendar and scheduling, which is not what we wanted to happen. We need the two calendars in sync, i.e. the same; and we need to post events further out that 14 days.

Powerchurch will take recurring events, and events months in advance and push them to Google. You are correct, it is not a 'sync' in the meaning that both sides are updated. It is strictly a push, the main thing is that all your events be entered via PCPlus ONLY, and pushed from there.

PowerChurch will add/update/delete events on the Google calendar from last month to 18 months into the future.

Updates online are not returned to PowerChurch.
Updates in PowerChurch are synchronized to the Google calendar. I think the keyword is "to", if it was "with" that would be both directions.
