Name Calendar

Each name session in JustWare includes a powerful and user-friendly Name Calendar that displays all events that person is involved in. The Name Calendar allows users to create, edit, reschedule, or delete events from an easy and intuitive calendar interface.

Note: The Name Calendar for the current user is available as a default My JustWare snap-in, making it extremely easy for a user to view and edit their events.

Calendar Interface

There are three calendar viewing options:

  • Day
  • Week (work week or full week)
  • Month

Note: JustWare remembers your last calendar view and uses it as the default the next time you open a calendar session or snap-in. Your personalized settings are used every time you log into JustWare, from any computer, because your personalized settings are saved on the JustWare database.

In each of the three calendar viewing options, the current day is displayed with a box in the corresponding month to the right. In the week view, the current week is highlighted in the corresponding month to the right. In the month view, the current month is highlighted to the right.

To navigate forward or backward through the current view, click the forward and back buttons.

Use the small month calendars to the right to jump to a particular day (from the day view), week (from the week view), or month (from the month view).

If you hover your mouse pointer over an event, a Tool Tip appears, displaying event information (i.e. title, event time, event type, event location, involved cases).
