Please back up your file before making any changes.

If you haven't already, navigate to the "Settings" tab in the calendar sidebar and click "Account Settings". Click "Check For Updates". This button should change to "Install Update" and inform you that version 10.12 is available. Click "Install Update".

To update the necessary scripts, begin by downloading the latest version of DayBack here:

You should follow these instructions if you have done the embedded integration or the linking integration and you don't want to perform the integration all over again.

Normally our updates don't change so many FileMaker Scripts (most don't change any scripts) but this version adds some new features and bug fixes that are specifically related to scripts. We apologize for all these changes, but they're worth it.

The Changes

Update the following script in your current DayBack File (Your file if you have done an embedded integration), but don't delete the script itself. Rather, use the "Select All" command to select and delete the entire contents of each script, then copy/paste the updated contents of the script from the new version of DayBack into the corresponding script in your DayBack file. You may get an error when opening both files at the same time. This is expected and you can just say "OK" to those errors before continuing. Here is the script that needs to be updated this way:

"Go To Event Record From WebViewer"
"Go To Calendar Home"

Please Note:
The only changes to those scripts were to add a 0.2 second pause to fix a crash bug on Windows. So if you have customized either of those scripts and would rather not replace the contents of them you only need to add the pause script step for Windows.

Finishing Up:
Close the new DayBack file you used to copy the script contents from.
Change the build number recorded in the database. Navigate to "File -> Manage -> Database" then go to the "CalendarInterface" table. Change the "BuildNumberCalc" calculation to read "10.12". Click "OK" to save those changes.

Then please run the "Upon Opening" script in your file. This will ensure all of the new settings load properly and the calendar loads with the correct data.

That's it, enjoy DayBack 10.12.

Hello!

I recently performed this update and now my event records are no longer opening in a new window when I create a new event on the calendar. The detail layout will still pop up when I click on an existing event. It appears the script to create an event goes most of the way through, because a record is created in the correct date with the correct resources added, but then it stops before popping open the new window with the detail layout. I am not sure which script I would need to check to fix this, so I appreciate any direction you can offer.

Thanks!

Hi Nick,

Sorry about the issue you're experiencing since the upgrade. I've been able to replicate the bug in a stock copy of DayBack and we'll be looking into a solution for this bug.

We'll be sure to update this post when a release is made which fixes the issue.

Thank you,

KC

Hi Nick,

We just released DayBack 10.13 which fixes the bug you're experiencing. There are no additional FileMaker script updates necessary, so if you are already on version 10.12, you can just run the in-app updates and should be good to go!

Regards,

KC
