How to enter personal events
The purpose of this forum is to provide us a space to enter our individual events so they populate on the calendar.
this will make it easy to deconflict ahead of time for personal availability.
the idea is to post your UNAVAILABLE time (i.e. when you CAN'T be at an event or meeting), that way we can identify the open spaces where we all can attend.
The way to do this is to post your nonavailability event (leave, TDY, travel, or other committment), as a 'New topic' and in the process of posting the post/topic create a calendar event (this is the block below the post text).
Title it with your road name, followed by 'UNAVAILABLE' followed by the reason (TDY/leave/ etc.) followed by the dates.
Enter a short line of text.
Scroll down below the text block and you'll see a SEND button --DON'T CLICK IT YET!!!!
Below that, you'll see a section where you can enter a calendar event. You enter the date first.
The 'hour of the event' is the time of day it starts... I generally jsut pu 8 for hour and 00 for minue.
The "during' section is for how long. When you enter a day it coutns it as 24 hours, so if you have an 8 a.m. start time, it will mark the event as ending the next day at 0800.
Once you have the dates etc. entered, scroll back up and click 'Send'
Your event will be posted to the calendar.
