Using the Events Calendar

See every scheduled event across every case in one place, and create, edit, reschedule, and delete events without leaving the calendar.

Written by Hillary Scalmanini

1. Opening the Calendar

Click Calendar in your top navigation.

The current month opens by default, with today highlighted.


2. Navigating the Calendar

Use the controls at the top of the calendar to:

Control

What it does

Left / Right arrows

Step backward or forward by one month.

Today

Jumps back to today's date.


3. Creating an event

There are two ways to start a new event:

From a date on the calendar

Click any day cell. The Create Event sidebar opens on the right with the date pre-filled to that cell.

From the Add event button

Click the Add event button above the calendar. The Create Event sidebar opens on the right. You'll have to manually input the date for the event.

Filling in the event

Field

Notes

Event type

Pick from your existing event types (visitation, ceremony, graveside, etc.).

Associated case

Search by case number or decedent name. All your cases are searchable, not just the first 10.

Date

Pre-filled if you opened the sidebar from a day cell, otherwise pick a date.

Time

Start time.

Duration

Length of the event.

Service Details (location)

Type a venue address. Suggestions appear as you type. Pick one to fill in city, state, and ZIP automatically.

Associated case search:

Address auto-fill:

Click Save to create the event. It immediately appears on the calendar and on the originating case's Events tab.

If you click Cancel with unsaved changes, you will be asked to confirm. With no changes, the sidebar closes silently.


4. Editing an event

From the calendar

Click any event card in the calendar grid. The Edit Event sidebar opens on the right with all the fields pre-filled. Make your changes and click Save.

If you start editing and try to switch to a different event or close the sidebar before saving, you will be prompted to confirm discarding unsaved changes.

From a case

Open a case, go to the Events tab, click Open in calendar. The calendar opens with the Edit event sidebar already open and the case pre-selected.


5. Rescheduling by drag and drop

Drag any event card to a different day on the calendar to reschedule it. The new date saves immediately, no need to open the edit sidebar.


6. Deleting an event

Open the event (click its card), click Delete in the sidebar, then confirm in the dialog. The event is removed from the calendar and from the originating case's Events tab.


7. Opening the underlying case

From the edit mode of an event, click the icon next to the case to open it in a new window. The case opens on its Events tab so you can see this event in its full case context.


8. Not Scheduled events

Events that exist but do not have a date yet show up in a dedicated Not scheduled section below the main calendar grid. Every unscheduled event from every active case is listed here.

If there are more than five, click Load more to see the rest.
