Accessing the Calendar

To access the Calendar:

  1. Click Calendar from the main navigation.

  2. The Calendar opens for the currently selected location.

You’ll see all scheduled visits and sessions displayed in a time-based layout.

Navigating dates

You can use the calendar navigation controls to move between dates quickly and easily.

You can:

  • Use the left and right arrows to move backward or forward.

  • Click the month and year dropdown to open the date picker and jump to a specific date or range.

  • Select Today to instantly return to the current day.

These controls remain visible and consistent as you navigate.

Switching calendar views

You can choose how your schedule is displayed using the view selector in the top-right corner.

Available views include:

  • Weekly view – View multiple days at once for planning ahead.

  • Daily view – Focus on a single day in detail.

  • Sessions view – Group visits by session or class.

Switching views updates the calendar instantly without losing context.

Note: On mobile, tap the three-dot menu (⋯) in the top-right corner of the Calendar to switch views (for example, Weekly view), adjust display settings, or access additional calendar options.

Filtering the Calendar

You can filter directly within the Calendar and remove them by clicking the X button.

To apply filters:

  1. Click the filter icon in the top-right.

  2. Filter by options such as:

    • Resources or visit type

    • Service

    • Tags

    • Party size

Filtering helps reduce visual noise and focus on the visits that matter most.

Note: Calendar filtering works the same way as on the Visits page, by clicking on the 3 line icon at the top right corner, and applied filters can be removed at any time by clicking the X button.

Calendar actions and tools

In the top-right area of the Calendar, you’ll find key tools grouped together:

  • Search – Quickly find visits or customers.

  • Filters – Narrow what’s shown on the calendar.

  • More actions (⋯) – Access calendar-specific options such as:

    • Switching to Daily or Sessions view

    • Display settings

    • Go to registration

    • Print

These tools help you customize how you view and manage your schedule.

User menu and Resources access

Your user profile and Resources view are accessible from the top-right corner of the page.

This placement matches the Visits page, keeping navigation consistent across the platform.

Note: On mobile, you can access your profile, User settings, and Help from the menu icon in the bottom-right corner of the app along with Settings and Public links.

Note: The Calendar follows the same layout principles as the Visits page, with navigation controls grouped in the header, easy access to filters, and user settings in a familiar location. This helps keep the experience consistent when switching between Calendar and Visits.
