to open the section's Section Include properties panel and open the Parameters tab. Complete the following parameters.The Calendar page displays multiple events, such as assignment goals and deadlines, in a typical calendar month format. At run time, the user can view the events and access a SmartInfo display for each. (The events may be work items, assignments, or other objects that have appropriate DateTime properties; they are not restricted to scheduled tasks.) Double-click any event to access detailed information about its associated case.
The standard section @baseclass.pxCalendar supports the Calendar capabilities of the Case Manager portal. You can include this section in the portals of your application by following the configuration instructions presented here.
You can also configure multiple calendars, each displaying different types of events. At run time, the user can view all information on a single calendar, or select a specific calendar to view information in a daily, weekly, or monthly format.
The Calendar page is accessed via the link in the left side column of the Case Manager portal.
The calendar opens in the default view mode specified during configuration of the calendar parameters. For weekly and monthly displays, the current day is highlighted. Change the view mode by clicking the Daily, Weekly, or Monthly buttons on the top right corner of the calendar. The calendar heading changes accordingly.
Use the left and right arrows at the top left of the calendar to move forward or back by day, week, or month, according to the view mode you have selected. For example, if you are in Weekly view mode, click the right arrow to move the calendar to display the next week. The Today button returns you to the current day, week, or month.
Click the Options button at the top right corner of the calendar to filter the events by Goal or Deadline. Check the box beside the calendars you wish to display, then click Apply. During configuration of the calendar parameters, you select colors for the events associated with a calendar. Selecting a unique color for each calendar makes it easier to identify events that belong to a specific calendar when you display all events on a single calendar.
You can configure SmartInfo so that a pop-up window displays information when you hover over an event.
Up to three events will fit on a day in the monthly view. If a day has more than three events, three dots will display at the bottom of the day. Click the dots to see the additional events.
