Calendar Sharing

Are you wondering why a user on your account can't view, edit or create appointments for you or other staff members? This is likely because you haven't shared your calendar with them or vice versa.
​
Calendar sharing allows you to dictate who can see, edit, create, and delete appointments.

Here is our step-by-step guide on this process Calendar Sharing

πŸ›‘ Please note that only the user can share their calendar with another user, even a supervisor on the account cannot do it for them.


Day View vs Week View

Tired of having to switch from one day to another? If you prefer to work looking at your practice schedules on a weekly basis, you can switch to the Week View to see the whole week at once! You can also choose which view you want your calendar to be defaulted to.

Due to space limitations, the Week View will not display some icons that appear when using Day View on the appointments.
​
However, you can Right Click the appointment and you will be presented with the same options, in list format.

Please, refer to the images below as an example.
