What is a Planner View?

A Planner View in Maica is defines what type of data is displayed in the Planner. It allows users to switch between different categories to focus on specific scheduling information. Each view determines which Shifts and Appointments are shown based on the selected focus and each view is tailored to a particular need within an organisation.

What is a Planner Mode?

A Planner Mode in Maica refers to the layout or format used to display the schedule. The two Modes in Maica's planner are Timeline Mode and Calendar Mode.

• Timeline Mode: This mode presents Appointments and Shifts in a horizontal timeline, displaying the schedule across a selected time period while aligning the selected view category along the side.

• Calendar Mode: This mode offers a more traditional calendar view, where Appointments and Shifts are displayed within a grid based on the days and hours of the selected period.

You can toggle between these Modes to choose how the schedule is visually represented within each View.
