The Calendar Page is where you can put events, reminders, tasks, and mark your availability on your Calendar.

To get to the calendar from the Home Page, select Calendar.

By default, your calendar is a Simplified HR calendar, and does not need to be connected to an external calendar to function. It is recommended, however, to connect your calendar to a Google or Microsoft Calendar if you already use one. Do this by clicking the gear icon at the top right corner of your calendar and selecting an option from the drop-down menu.

On the top right of the Calendar, you can change your view mode between Month, Week, and Day.

Clicking on a day in the Week view focuses on that day by clicking on the date.

Navigate forward and backward in your calendar using the arrows on the left-hand side above the calendar.

You can add events, tasks and reminders to your calendar. These will show up on your agenda, which is located to the left of the Calendar:

You can add Events, Reminders, Tasks, and change your availability by clicking on any particular day or time slot in the calendar anywhere other than the date. This will bring up the following pop-up window:

The default option offered by the pop up box is Event:

To create an Event, you must at minimum fill out the title field.

Select the save button at the bottom of the box.

If you’ve saved your Event successfully, a Successfully created notification will appear in the top right corner of the Calendar.

You can add a start time/day and end time/day to your Event, using the date and time drop down menus provided.

You can set an Event to cover the entire day, if it repeats, and whether it notifies involved users by selecting the corresponding checkboxes.

Selecting the repeat checkbox gives you a dropdown menu that allows you to pick the frequency that the Event is repeated.

Selecting Custom from this drop-down allows further configuration of the repeating schedule.

To set up notifications for your Event, check the Notify box and select from the dropdown menu:

You can add people to your Event by choosing from the dropdown menu in the Add People field.

You can add a location for your Event by filling in the Location field.

Below these fields, you have the option of adding comments, attachments, and URLs.

To add a reminder to your Calendar, select the Reminder option in the pop-up box:

As with an Event, you can choose to give a start and end time to your Reminder or check the All Day or Repeat boxes. The only part of the pop-up box that has to be filled in is the title section.

To create a Task, choose the Task option in the pop-up box:

This will give you the option of setting start and end times for you task (or making it all day), though the only required field is the title.

As with Events, you can add relevant comments, attachments, and URLs to your Tasks.

The pop-up box also gives you the option of setting your availability to unavailable:

All fields of the form must be filled out to successfully save your availability.

You must choose a start and end time for your unavailability, or select All Day.
