Calendar
Schedule and manage appointments with your clients, contacts, and projects — all in one place. ACME Creative Agency's upcoming calls, site visits, and project milestones all appear here in a single unified view.
Key Features
- Three Calendar Views: Switch between Month, Week, and Day views to see your schedule at a glance or in detail.
- Appointment Types: Categorize appointments as Consultations, Site Visits, Meetings, Calls, Demos, Follow-ups, or Custom. Each type has its own automatic color and icon for instant recognition.
- Status Tracking: Mark appointments as Scheduled, Confirmed, Completed, Cancelled, or No Show.
- All Day Events: Check "All Day Event" to create a full-day appointment without a specific time.
- CRM Links: Connect each appointment to an Account, Contact, and/or Project for full context.
- Location Options: Choose In Person (with address), Phone, Video Call, Google Meet, or Zoom. Virtual options reveal a meeting link field — Google Meet and Zoom can generate that link automatically when those integrations are connected.
- Google Calendar Sync: Two-way sync with Google Calendar keeps changes in both places up to date automatically.
- Color Labels: Override the default type color with one of 8 colors for quick visual identification.
- Reminders: Set a reminder 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, or 1 day before the appointment.
- Project Timelines: Active project date ranges appear as color-coded spanning bars across the calendar. Click any bar to jump directly to that project.
- Project Milestones: Project milestone events appear as distinct calendar items, also linking back to their project.
- Online Booking: Share a public booking link so clients can self-schedule based on your availability rules.

Tips
- Use Week or Day view to see exact appointment times side by side. Both views automatically scroll to 8 AM so your working hours are front and center.
- Project timeline bars span across days automatically — click one to jump straight to that project.
- Linking appointments to Accounts and Contacts keeps your CRM activity log up to date.
- Click any empty time slot in Week or Day view to open a new appointment already set to that time.
- Connect Google Calendar under Integrations to keep your schedule synced across both platforms.
