Using the ORMS Calendar

The calendar displays four months where you can select which dates you want for data to appear in the graphs and grids. When the dashboard first opens, the first month in the calendar grid is the current month, with the next three subsequent months displayed thereafter. You may select one date, multiple dates, or a date range for the displayed data.

Depending on the active dashboard, various dates are already highlighted as configured:

• Events - The days that are underlined, indicate an event is occurring. When moving the mouse over the date, a pop-up hint shows the configured Event occurring on that date. These were configured in Configuration>Seasons and Events.
• Alerts - If the date is colored, there is a minimum of one alert for this date. When more than one alert exists for the date, the color of the alert on the calendar is based on the alert configured as the priority. Move the mouse over the date to display the pop-up hint describing the alert(s) for the date. The alerts and colors are user definable from Configuration>Alerts and Rules.

  Note: If various alerts are triggered for the same day, the system will present the following hierarchy for each of the alert groups configured: 1) Forecast Alert, 2) Hurdle Alert, 3) Overbooking Alert. Within each of the Alert Groups, the system will follow the configured Display Sequence.

Customizing the Four-Month Calendar

If you want to display a different set of four months, click on the (back) << < or (forward) > >> arrows at the top of the selected calendar month. The double arrow moves the calendar back two or forward two months, respectively. The single arrow moves the calendar back or forward one month, respectively. All other calendar months in the grid appear in sequence.

Selecting Dates

Individual Days - To select one day, simply click the one day. For several individual days not in a sequence (i.e. Monday Wednesday, and Friday) use Ctrl and click the separate days.

Same Days of the Week for the Month - To select a specific day of the week for the entire month, for example all Thursdays, simply place the cursor at the top of the day of the week (i.e. T) and click. You can also use Crtl and select more than one day of the week for the entire month, for example, all Saturdays and Sundays.

Entire Week - To select the entire week, click the pointer for the appropriate week.

Entire Month - To select the entire month, click the arrow at the top of the month.

Detach Calendar

You can also expand the four-month calendar to a full 12-month calendar by selecting the Detach Calendar option. The detached, expanded calendar grid displays 12 months from which you can select dates. By default, the first month in the calendar grid is the current month, with the next 11 subsequent months.

• If you want to display a different set of 12 months, click on the (back) << < or (forward) > >>arrows at the top of the selected calendar month.
• The double arrow moves the calendar back or forward 12 months, respectively.
