19. Events

The following entries constitute events:

  • sick leave
  • vacation
  • compensatory time

You have been introduced to these events in the user settings, where you could assign colours to them. You can also create your own kinds of events, which is described further below.

Events differ a little from entries.

  • Events cannot be moved.
  • Events cannot be resized.
  • Events are not connected to an order.

Events have a long-term character, which is why they are built up differently than entries. However, that poses no disadvantage as regards handling.

Create your own events
You can create your own events according to you personal preferences or regional requirements and assign colours to them. Go to the menu Settings –> Event types. The window Event type will appear. Right-click to open the context menu where you can choose whether you want to edit an existing event type or to create a new one. The window Edit event type will appear where you can set the name and colour of the new event type.

There are two ways of entering an event.
The quickest way is through the timetable. Right-click on the employee to whom you want to assign an event and select Assign event in the context menu. The window Edit events will appear where you can set the event data.

The filtering functions form another way of restricting the displayed entries. You can filter by employee or by event type. You can also combine these two filter settings if you wish.
