Overview

The month view of the schedule provides a high-level overview of your scheduled work in a monthly calendar format. This schedule view is ideal for long-term planning, identifying busy periods, and ensuring full coverage of scheduled work.

Each day contains color-coded blocks for your visits, tasks, events, and reminders. Anytime visits appear at the top of each day, while scheduled appointments are displayed in their respective time slots. Unscheduled appointments and a supplementary map view can be added to the month view of the schedule. Today's date is highlighted for quick reference.
