Calendar Comments

Calendar Comments, if used by your company, allow you to enter a location-specific comment and daily comments. The daily comments display on the 1 Day View in the Schedule Module. This is an optional feature and not all companies use Calendar Comments.

The copy feature functions similarly to the copy functionality on the Scheduler pages. You have the ability to enter multiple comments per day and to copy individual comments on a day to other days. Each comment can be selected individually. You can also delete individual comments without affecting other comments on the same day. If the comment is too long to be displayed in the Calendar/Day window, mouse over  the comment and the entire text of the comment displays in a pop-up. The calendar has navigation arrows at the top of the page, providing the ability to move from one month to another and if there is room, days from the previous and the next month are also displayed on the calendar grid with a gray shaded background.
