Specific dates

To add a specific date to a calendar, use the Yearly, Quarterly, and Monthly formats to add dates to the calendars.

The Yearly format displays the run schedule for the entire year. The Quarterly format displays the run dates for the current quarter. You can also view the Monthly format for the calendar, which displays the run dates for the current month. In all three formats, you can change the displayed time range by clicking the previous and next buttons.

You can add specific dates in the Monthly calendar format. To add dates for the Yearly and Quarterly calendar formats, click a month to open it in the Monthly format, where you can select specific days as run dates.

For example, if your company ships products according to an irregular schedule that cannot be defined using the daily or weekly settings, you can create a list of these dates in a "Shipping dates" calendar. The Shipping department can now check the inventory after each shipment by scheduling a report that uses the calendar to run at the end of each shipping day.
