Publishing a slip in iCal
iCal is a personal calendar application made by Apple that runs on the Mac OS X. In Billings, you can prioritize important slips that need attention and publish these slips in iCal. A reminder will appear in your iCal on the date provided in the slip. You can publish a slip in iCal in 2 ways:
- As To-Do item
- As Event
The difference between the 2 ways is that if you select "As To-Do item," the reminder will be added to your To-Do list in iCal, based on priority. Whereas, if you select "As Event," the reminder shows in iCal at the exact date as an event.
