## Working with the Calendar Pages The Calendar pages provide the main area for managing activities. The default page is the Daily Calendar page, which contains a Daily Calendar section, a Calendar View section, a section that displays the Open Tasks list, and a Planned Calls section. To see the Planned Calls section on the Calendar page, your user role must include the Calls: Calendar Planned Calls privilege. The Planned Calls section lists up to two weeks of planned calls for the sales representative in chronological order and displays the following information for each planned call: call date and start time, time of day, subject, contact to be visited and other contact address information. The two week range for the listed planned calls includes the planned calls for the previous week and the planned calls for the upcoming week. The colour coding that is used in the Planned Calls section on the Calendar pages is determined by the theme that you use, as follows: Overdue planned calls with a start date that is in the past appear in the colour that your administrator selects for the alert text in the theme. Upcoming planned calls with a start date that is in the future appear in the colour that your administrator selects for the page links in the theme. For more information about creating a planned call, see Tracking Visits (Sales Calls) to Customers, Dropping Samples During a Sales Call, and Mass Call Planning. You can: Select the calendar view that you want to display each time that you click the Calendar tab. Select the activity list that you want to display in the daily and weekly views of your own calendar and the individual calendars of other users who share their calendar with you (the daily and weekly user calendar views). Specify which day is shown as the first day of the week in your calendar. Specify a set of work days and business hours that are different from the default work days and business hours for your company. Choose to display additional information in the appointments in your calendar views. For information about setting up these calendar options, see Setting Your Default Calendar View. NOTE: If your role includes the Share Calendar privilege, your Calendar pages might provide additional functionality than that listed on the default page. For more information on additional functionality, see Calendar Settings Page. The following table describes what you can do from the daily and weekly user calendar views.
