Calendar / Planner
The Calendar is a powerful tool, which integrates your agenda (tasks, appointments, contacts, etc.) in a Set of Books. You may manage all your events in this Calendar with options to set the recurrence of an event (i.e. daily, weekly, monthly by day, monthly by date, yearly by day, yearly by date or custom, where you may specify the interval in days).
In addition to scheduling all your events, the Calendar has a powerful reminder system which may be set to remind you of a scheduled event, or task, well in advance (from any number of minutes, hours and even days).
There are ten (10) main categories of events which you can manage (add, edit, delete or change dates of events) in the Calendar. These are: 
•Appointment (general - i.e. with bank manager, lunches, etc.)
•Repeating invoices - schedule when you need to copy / process repeating invoices.
•Customers Appointment - schedule up to six (6) categories of appointments with customers. You may also create invoices for these customer appointments.
•Vendors Appointment - schedule appointments with vendors.
•Hours - schedule the hours (time) to invoice customers. Once these are set you may generate Estimates for the hours. Once these Estimates are generated, you may edit them (if necessary) and convert them to Invoices.
|
Colour coding also makes it easier to identify the category of the event, when displayed in the Calendar. |
In addition to these events you can also manage and view:
•Tasks - Manage (add, edit or delete) tasks (for example, do the bank reconciliation, print customer statements, print vendor remittance advices, etc.)
•Contacts - Find a contact by clicking on the alphabetical keys and manage (add, edit or delete) contacts in addition to Action → Contacts.
