Calendar

Practical example: Using the calendar to plan your week

Scenario: A QA Specialist logs in Monday morning to review the week’s deadlines and prioritize their workload.

1. Navigate to the Calendar page. The current day (Monday) is highlighted with a ring border.
2. Scan the week ahead (Monday through Friday). Notice:
   • Tuesday has 2 blue dots (training) and 1 orange dot (deviation) — 3 events total.
   • Wednesday has a red dot (CAPA) with an overdue warning icon (triangle).
   • Friday has 2 green dots (documents).
3. Select Wednesday to view the detail panel. It shows: “CAPA-289: Revalidation of sterilization cycle — Action due date” marked as Overdue. This is the highest priority item for the week.
4. Select the CAPA event to navigate directly to CAPA-289 and update the action status.
5. Return to the calendar and select Tuesday. The detail panel shows:
   • “Training: GMP Refresher — Due date” (blue)
   • “Training: Cleanroom Gowning Requalification — Due date” (blue)
   • “DEV-445: Out-of-spec pH reading — Investigation due” (orange)
6. Plan the day: complete both training assignments in the morning, then work on the deviation investigation in the afternoon.
7. Select Friday to check end-of-week deadlines: two documents are due for periodic review. Schedule time Thursday afternoon to review them so approvals can be submitted Friday.

By checking the calendar at the start of the week, the QA Specialist identified an overdue CAPA requiring immediate attention and organized the remaining deadlines into a manageable schedule.
