FAQ

  • Can I integrate my timetable into my personal calendar?

    Downloading and Uploading Your Timetable:

    • You can download your educational timetable from The TimeEdit Viewer. For detailed instructions see FAQ 'How can I integrate my timetable into my personal calendar'.
    • After downloading, you can upload this file to your calendar.
    • Note: The timetable will be integrated in your calendar, but it won’t be synchronised automatically.

    Synchronisation Limitations for 2024-2025:

    For the academic year 2024-2025, it’s not possible to fully integrate and synchronise your educational timetable with your personal Outlook calendar.

    Future Synchronisation (2025-2026):

    Starting from the 2025-2026 academic year, full integration and synchronisation of your educational timetable with your Outlook calendar will be possible.

  • How can I integrate my timetable into my personal calendar?

    Note: this downloaded Calendar will not be synchronised! 

    Using the following steps, you can integrate an educational timetable or personal schedule from the TimeEdit Viewer into your Calendar.

    Removing Integrated Activities from an iCal File in Outlook

    1. Manual Deletion: After downloading and adding an iCal file to your Outlook Calendar, you may need to remove the integrated activities. Typically, this requires deleting each activity one by one.

  • Can I synchronise timetables with a calendar in TimeEdit?

    6. Click yes

    7. The calendar will be visible as an extra calendar that will be synchronised, so when changes are made to the schedule this changes will be visible in this added calendar.

  • I get an error message when I want to subscribe to a schedule

    When you subscribe to a schedule in Outlook, you might see an error message. Despite this, the schedule will still be added to your calendars.

  • Can I only subscribe to my schedule for 4 weeks?

    The TimeEdit Viewer displays the schedule for the time period you select.

    When subscribing, you have two options:

    1. Relative 4 weeks: This option shows your schedule for the next 4 weeks.
    2. Custom Time Period: Use the dropdown menu to select the same time period you chose earlier (e.g., a block or another selection from the calendar).

  • How to search in the schedule with a combination of objects?

    When you want to add multiple objects such as a study programme and a course, then use the separator + between the objects to make it both visible in the schedule.

     The separator must be between the two objects, as in the example below.

  • Is the 'show available time' filter not working?

    At the moment the filter ‘show available time’ is not working. The problem has been reported to the supplier, who is working on a solution.

  • I have an Utwente X-number account, can I use TimeEdit?

    When you have an Utwente External Account (X-number) you can use the 'Student' entrance of the University of Twente TimeEdit page to view Schedules, Reserve projectrooms or use the Hallviewer.

  • My TimeEdit page opens in Dutch

    At the moment there is an issue with the language settings in TimeEdit.

    This causes in some cases the TimeEdit Viewer to open in Dutch while all our settings are default on English. The developers at TimeEdit are working to solve this issue.

    You can easily switch to 'English' using the globe on the upper right corner.

  • How do I remove holidays in TimeEdit Viewer or Calendar subscription?

    When you don't want holidays visible in your View or Calendar subscription of TimeEdit uncheck the 'info reservations' (before subscribing to a schedule).

    When logged in to the TimeEdit Viewer:

    1. go to 'Customize' in the upper right corner of your screen.

    2. Click Reservations

    3. Uncheck 'Info reservations' in the Content>Show additional reservations section.

  • I have reservations in my calendar subscription that say 'Inforeservation'

    Unfortunately in the staff Viewer the Inforeservations that are used to mark public holidays and bridging days are shown as 'Inforeservations' and not by their title (like Christmas Holiday). TimeEdit is working on a solution for this.

    Update 11-12:

    There has been a change in configuration and the Holidays are now visible as 'Inforeservation, Title of inforeservation'

    We have made a feature request to make it possible to show only the title of the inforeservation, for now this is not possible yet.

    To remove this Inforeservations from your calendar, see the previous FAQ (How do I remove holidays..)
