Calendar (Before 1.0.5)

What is calendar feature?

The calendar feature within Employee Garrison is to keep a tab of important events related to employees within the organization. You can add different events on the calendar eg. team member's birthdays, work anniversaries, etc. so you will never miss any important events related to your employees. If needed you can also keep a tab on the data related to employee leave by adding a leave related event. Just apply the relevant filters and get important data about events or leaves. 

How to create events in calendar?

• Navigate to calendar from left menu. (Refer image above)
• Click on setting icon at the right corner of the calendar.

• Enter the event name, eg. Birthday, Work anniversary, etc. 

• Select the event type. (These event types may vary depending on the date related custom profile attributes you have created in Employee Garrison).

• Select the color coding. 

• Click on add and then close.

Now you would see the new type of event added to the event list.

How to delete events in calendar?

• Click on setting icon in the calendar section of the project profile page. 

• Click on delete icon of the relevant event you want to delete.

• Then click on close. 

How to check any type of events on the calendar?

Do note that, although the calendar is visible to all users, depending on the logged in user, calendar's content will be displayed.

• If a logged in user does not have any direct reports - system displays her own data. Also, she would not see the user drop-down. 
• if a logged in user has direct reports - system displays her own data by default along with a users dropdown to select a specific user from her direct reports.
• If a logged in user is admin/super admin - system displays her own data by default along with all users in garrison in the users drop-down.

So, depending on the above situations, one can select a specific event/s and users from the dropdowns and find the relevant data. You would see the left side panel displays the list of all events and leaves along with related information. As well as the same events are datewise displayed on the calendar.
