# Calendar View

## Overview

A Report can be configured to display information in a multitude of ways; this gives the user the freedom to choose a mode that is appropriate for the situation and information. The **Calendar Summary** mode displays the information in a standard calendar format based on user-selected settings.

## Example

The goal of this example is to edit a Report to display the information in **Calendar** mode.

This example will use a pre-existing Report to set a Calendar Summary mode. Please navigate to [Create a Report](https://documentation.decisions.com/v9/docs/create-reports)for more information on creating a Report.

1. Navigate to a****Designer Folder, click on an existing Report, and select EDIT REPORT from the resulting sliding window.

2. In the **Report Designer**, under the **Views** section, click the **Add** option to display the menu options. Select the **Calendar** option.

3. Notice the **Calendar** configuration workspace is displayed and that a **Calendar** option is added to the menu bar.
4. Next, configure the **Calendar Summary** to display the desired information from the **Data**menu.

In this example, the Report is an appointment log, so the desired information will include the Data Fields: Person Name, Email, Meeting Location, Time, and Attendees. In the Calendar Summary mode, each of these Data Fields will be dragged into the workspace and labeled appropriately (e.g. Name: person_name, Email: email, Meeting Location: meeting_location, Appointment Time: time, Attendees: attendees).

5. In the **Properties p**anel **> Calendar View**, users can select how the Calendar will display the information.
  1. Select the **Primary Calendar Provider** drop down list and check the time boolean; this option tells the Report to display the information at the time it is scheduled for. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/6ef8bcc1-6489-4486-9ad1-83acff7e5df0/Images/Documentation/2024-07-03_15h14_38.png)
6. The Report is complete. **Save**and select **Run Report** from the Top Action Bar.
7. By default, the Report will display in **View Mode: Grid,** however, by selecting the new**View Mode: Calendar,** the Calendar is available to view.****View Mode: Calendar is also configurable to display events scheduled by week, day, or in a list. ![](https://cdn.document360.io/6ef8bcc1-6489-4486-9ad1-83acff7e5df0/Images/Documentation/2024-07-03_15h15_25.png)
