Monitor Calendar Events

You can monitor and manage your events in the SAP Analytics Cloud calendar list workspace. This workspace provides an overview of your calendar events in a customizable table.

The list workspace is especially helpful if you have to monitor many automated tasks. It lets you keep track of their start time and status. You can work on your events by opening the event in the Details panel.

Columns

You can display the following properties of an event in the columns of the list workspace:

  • Name

  • Start Date

  • Due Date

  • Status

  • Progress

  • Duration

  • Type

  • Style

  • Description

The first column of the list workspace is the Name column. This column is not customizable. If the style and type columns are not displayed in the list workspace, they appear as icons before the name of the event. A rectangle style icon indicates a manual event, whereas a round style icon represents an automatic event. Type icons change according to event type.

The Progress column shows the progress in percentages. Once the event has been accomplished, the progress bar appears in green. Please note that automated events don't indicate progress.

The date and time in the Start Date and Due Date columns appear either in a date format or as text. This depends on how close the start or due date is to the current date. Dates that are coming up or recently passed show up as text. For example, an event is shown as due in 2 days, whereas all other events appear in a date format (for example, the due date might appear as Jul 20, 2020, 07:00 PM). As soon as an event is finalized, the date and time appear in a date format.

Customizing

You can customize the list workspace by selecting the columns that you want to display. To do so, choose (Select Columns) and select the desired columns.

You can change the list workspace to show a day, week, month, or year's worth of events.

You can adjust the size of the columns by dragging the double-headed arrow to the left or right. The arrow appears at the edges of the columns when hovering over it.

Sorting

You can sort your events in the list workspace by selecting (Sort By). You can sort according to the start and due time of your event, and choose whether you want to have the event displayed in an alphabetical order, or according to duration.

You can also sort your events directly in the columns. Select to sort ascending or to sort descending by a specific column.

Filtering

You can apply filters to your events by selecting (Filter) from the main toolbar. You can filter according to Style, Status, My Roles, Due, and Type. Your filters are displayed in the filter bar next to (Filter Data). You can remove a filter directly in the filter bar. For more information, see Filter Calendar Events.
