Calendar maintains a work schedule calendar. This calendar shows the number of scheduled appointments for the day, and the unscheduled amount of technician work hours that are available.
To look at the work that is scheduled for the day, select Calendar in the toolbar, or press CTRL + D. A calendar for the current month will appear.
NOTE: If you do not see a Calendar button in the toolbar, you may have enabled the Scheduler, which replaces the Calendar.
When the Calendar opens, it displays the work for the month.
When the technicians were entered, their normal weekly work schedule was entered. The number of hours available for all technicians is calculated and displayed on the calendar. Also displayed on the calendar is the number of appointments on a given day.
As appointments are made, the hours scheduled for each appointment is subtracted from the available hours.
The calendar also displays days that the facility is closed (in rose) and days the facility is open half days (in light blue).
