The Commit-Outlook Sync for Accounts performs a two-way sync between Commit Accounts and Outlook contacts.
Note that you can prevent private contacts in Outlook from being synced Commit.
In the Outlook Options window, select the Accounts tab to set the Account sync options:
1. Select the Synchronize Accounts/Contacts box in order to activate the Accounts synchronization. Note that a pop up message will appear regarding how to prevent duplicates upon import - see more details about this in Before Importing from Outlook section.
2. In the Setting Commit > Outlook section you can define the behavior when transferring data from Commit into Outlook. Note that you can prevent secondary Contacts in Commit from being transferred into Outlook (if you do not wish to create an Outlook contact for each secondary contact in Commit).
3. In the Setting Outlook > Commit section you can define the behavior when transferring data from Outlook into Commit. Note that you can prevent Private Outlook contacts from being transferred into Commit. Since the Commit Accounts database is shared for all users, this can be useful if you wish to prevent contacts which are not work-related from being imported into Commit. Another way to achieve privacy is to use a different contacts folder within Outlook for your private contacts, and sync Commit only with your public contacts folder.
4. You can also allow other users to sync information for you between Commit and an Exchange Server. This is useful when traveling outside of the office and using PDAs to keep updated.
