Calendar
The Calendar provides a visual overview of all your itineraries across time, helping you manage bookings and identify busy periods at a glance.
Overview
The Calendar module allows you to:
- View all past, current, and upcoming itineraries
- Track trip start dates, end dates, and ongoing trips
- Switch between day, month, and year views
- Plan your schedule more effectively
Accessing the Calendar
Click Calendar in the left navigation panel to open the calendar view.
Calendar Views
TravPilot offers three different calendar views to suit your planning needs:
Day View
Shows detailed information for a single day, including:
- All itineraries starting on that day
- All itineraries ending on that day
- All ongoing trips for that day
Month View
Displays an entire month at a glance with trip indicators on each date.
Year View
Shows the full year overview, helping you identify seasonal trends and long-term planning.
Understanding Trip Indicators
The calendar uses color-coded dots to show trip status for each date:
Color Meanings
- Green Dot - Trip starts on this day
- Yellow Dot - Trip is ongoing on this day (in progress)
- Red Dot - Trip ends on this day
Month View Details
In the month view, each date displays a count of trips by status:
Example Indicators
- 2 green, 1 yellow - Two trips start and one ongoing trip on that day
- 1 green, 3 yellow, 1 red - One trip starts, three ongoing trips, and one trip ends
- 2 red - Two trips end on that day
This count system helps you quickly assess how busy each day is and what type of activity is happening.
Year View Details
In the year view, dates show color indicators without counts:
- Dates with trips display green, yellow, or red dots
- Multiple trip types on one day will show the relevant color(s)
- This provides a high-level overview of your booking calendar
