Open Integrations

Open Settings, then Integrations under Security. You'll see four cards:

CardWhat it doesStatus you may see
Microsoft 365Adds the events you host in Chronica to your Outlook calendarNot connected, Connected or Needs reconnecting
ONLYOFFICELets you edit Word, Excel and PowerPoint files together inside ChronicaBuilt in
Azure Blob StorageWhere your firm's documents are stored, encrypted at restBuilt in
Online paymentsLets clients pay invoices online through ChronicaOn, Opening or Not set up

The two Built in tools need no setup. They are part of every firm's account.

Connect your Outlook calendar

Each person connects their own Microsoft account. Connecting yours doesn't connect anyone else's.

  1. On the Microsoft 365 card, click Connect.
  2. Sign in to Microsoft with your work account and allow Chronica access to your calendar.
  3. Wait on the Connecting your Microsoft 365 calendar screen. It takes a few seconds.

Once connected, the card shows Connected, the Microsoft account you used and the date you connected it. From then on, events you host in Chronica are added to your Outlook calendar.

If you cancel the Microsoft sign-in or decline permission, Chronica tells you the calendar wasn't connected. Click Connect to try again.

Reconnect or disconnect

If the card says Needs reconnecting, Microsoft has stopped accepting the sign-in, and new events aren't reaching Outlook. Click Reconnect and sign in again.

To stop adding events to Outlook:

  1. Click Disconnect.
  2. Confirm with Disconnect, or click Keep connected to change your mind.

Events already in Outlook stay where they are. You can connect again at any time.

Online payments

The Online payments card shows whether your clients can pay invoices online. When it's on, the card shows the bank account Chronica pays you into.

  • Click Set up payouts if online payments aren't set up yet.
  • Click Manage payouts to change the account.

Both take you to Settings, then Payouts. For the full steps, see Online payments and payouts.

Opening

Opening means the account Chronica pays you into is still being opened. The card changes to On when it's ready.

Questions

Do I need to connect ONLYOFFICE to edit documents?

No. It's built in, so you can edit Word, Excel and PowerPoint files in Chronica without connecting anything.

Can I connect Google Calendar?

No. Microsoft 365 is the only calendar you can connect.
