Switching Views and Moving Around the Calendar

How to switch between Day, Week and Month, jump back to today, and step through periods on the vessel calendar.

  • Management
  • Captain & crew

The controls for moving around the calendar sit in the row above the grid, on the right-hand side.

Choosing a view

The first button shows the view you are currently in. Click it and pick one of:

  • Day — a single day, laid out hour by hour.
  • Week — seven days, laid out hour by hour. This is the view you start with the first time you open the page.
  • Month — a whole month, one box per day.

Day and Week show timed events in their hour slots, with all-day entries in a separate strip at the top of the grid labelled day. Month shows up to five entries per day box; if a day holds more, the box offers a link to see the rest.

Your choice is remembered in the browser, so the calendar reopens in the same view next time.

Moving through time

  • Today returns the grid to the current date.
  • The two arrow buttons beside it step backwards and forwards by one period — a day, a week or a month, depending on the view you are in. Their tooltips read Previous period and Next period.

On the left of the same row, beside the Add Event button, the calendar tells you which period you are looking at: the date in Day view, the span of days in Week view, and the month and year in Month view.

Opening an entry

Click any entry on the grid to open its details. What you get depends on the entry: an event you created opens with buttons to edit or delete it, while a reflected entry such as a document or task opens a read-only summary with a link through to the record it came from.
