DMS Monthly Calendar Menu

 

 

After you log in to DMS you are presented with a calendar showing the current system month and day.  The menu across the top of the calendar enables you to access the areas of DMS.

 

The calendar has several features available for you to use.  You can ignore the features of the calendar if you wish and just use it as a reference.  The calendar features do not have any impact on scheduling.  If you are interested in the calendar features available, this section explains what those features are.

 

First of all, there are several Calendar & Planner Options that enable you to customize the appearance of the calendar to your liking.  Secondly, you can add calendar activities to the calendar and notify other DMS users.  These activities can optionally be categorized for future purposes and can also be used to assign and track follow up action.  Finally, you can display Calendar/Capacity Changes on the calendar.

 

The following screen examples show various formats of the Calendar menu.

 

In the example below:

1.Calendar activities such as appointments and meetings are displayed.

2.Calendar/Capacity changes are displayed.

3.The daily planner and yellow notes are displayed to the left of the calendar.

4.The week number is displayed under the column "Wk"
