Operations in the Calendar ViewIn order to open the Calendar View of a catalog, open the catalog and switch to its calendar mode by clicking the 'Switch to Calendar View' button in the left-hand part of the catalog control bar (bottom of the catalog). If the 'Switch to Calendar View' button is missing, it is most likely because Calendar View has not been enabled either globally or for the currently opened catalog. See Catalog Customizer: 'Enabling the Calendar Mode' for more information. Also note that Calendar View is available only in Valuemation Web Client. Unlike 'Table View' and 'Tree View' modes, which are available in all catalogs by default, 'Calendar View' needs to be enabled and customized for a particular catalog with data that benefit from being displayed in a calendar form, such as catalogs of 'Tickets' (Incident/Problem/Change Manager), 'Systems' (Asset Manager), 'Contract' (Contract Manager, Procurement Manager), 'Request' (Procurement Manager) etc. Please also note:
Note: In the previous versions of Valuemation, switching between catalog layouts was done using the 'Switch' button (found in the right-hand part of the catalog control bar). This is the state captured on most screenshots throughout this documentation.
