To be a scheduling organizer, you must connect your calendar to Factorial.

 

Invites to connect employees' calendars can only be sent by administrators

 

 

How to connect your calendar to Factorial

After being invited, everyone will receive a notification to configure their calendars. To configure your calendar, go to your Personal Settings > Connect Calendar.
