Boards iOS Calendar

View and manage all meetings and events from the Diligent Boards calendar, which supports linking to all sections of the application and external Web content.

1. Select the Navigation menu icon to open the main menu.

2. Select the Calendar button.

3. The calendar view, by default, is set to the Events View. This view displays a scrolling list of all upcoming meetings and events with a preview of details for each item.

   1. Your next upcoming meetings and events are placed at the top of the screen.

   2. Meetings and events are grouped by year. Select the year title or arrow icon to collapse that menu. Select it again to expand it.

      Note

      Meetings from previous years will be collapsed by default.

4. To access the detailed view for an event, select anywhere in that event's row.

5. Meeting dates and times are generated automatically based on the iPad's local time.

   Note

   If you change the iOS device's local time zone, or travel within a different time zone, the date and time for events in the calendar will update automatically.

   Note

   To change the formatting of event dates and times, change the Region Format option in your device's international settings. See Boards iOS language settings for more information on the international settings menu.

6. Specific information for an event may be found in its Details field at the bottom of the screen. This may include links to a relevant book, resource item or external content. Select the link to go to that resource.

   Note

   Links to external resources open an external iPad application (e.g., Safari, Maps, YouTube).

7. Select the row displaying the month to return to the events list, or select the Events button.

8. To view the calendar in a month layout, select the Month button in the top bar. Meetings and events appear in their associated color, with a small preview of their details.

9. To view a calendar event via the month layout:

   1. If there is one event in a day, selecting the event preview will bring up the detailed view of that event.

   2. If there are multiple events in a day, selecting the event preview opens a bubble showing the list of events for that day.

   3. Select an event in the bubble to bring up the detailed view for that event.
