Diary events in JobBag are used to schedule meetings or reminders that can be associated with specific jobs or projects. They are useful for organising recurring weekly internal WIP meetings, important external client meetings, as well as annual or personal leave requests. These events help track key dates, such as deadlines, talent rollovers, and birthdays.
Diary events can be shared with team members, includes alerts for upcoming meetings, and integrates with external calendars like Outlook or Google Calendar. Most importantly, these events can make it easy to add timesheets for selected events. Typically, events are scheduled within the active diary calendar or in the diary tab of the jobs window.
There are three main Event types Public Holiday, Leave Events and Other Events.
