Calendar Updates!

We're excited to announce some requested updates to our Calendar tool. Using Shopperations calendars is a great way to gain time back in your day. All of your plans can be exported in an easy to understand visual flow at any time. Take a look at the video walkthrough or check out what's new below!

 

1. Sorting of Events & Tactics

Now you can sort the list of Events and Tactics alphabetically, or by any of the additional fields you add to the calendar in Settings under the ⚙ icon. For example, you may want to sort Events in descending order by Allocated budget, or sort by Status. You have lots of options now! 

 

2. Recolor Events & Tactic

We offer 6 new vibrant colors you can apply to Events and Tactics. To recolor all of them at once, use the watering can icon on the top right. 

You can also hover over and recolor individual events and tactics: 

If you liked the "color by status" we used to have in the past, this option is still available by clicking on the last color option, the color wheel.

3. Spend Subtotals for Teams/Retailers

As requested, we've added Sub-totals and Grand Totals for each Team and Retailer page for all value fields.

 As a reminder, here are a few other tips & tricks for the calendar:

• Use Settings to add up to three additional fields of information into your calendar- popular picks include Allocated Budget, Tactic Brand/Product, and Tactic Description fields.
• Switch calendar timing between internal fiscal year, retailer calendar, or calendar year as needed on top right of the screen.
• Use the Hide & Unhide feature by clicking on the blue eye icon to remove unwanted events or tactics from view. To un-hide, click same eye icon on top right of the screen.
• Toggle to quarterly, or half-year views to create more concise views and exports.
• Export calendars as PNG or PDF files.
