Calendaring Terminology

  • Event, Session, and Appointment
    • Events, sessions, and appointments are scheduled on the calendar the same way, the only difference being the type of calendar used for the event, session, or appointment.
  • Calendar Types
    • Calendar types are used to identify the type of event/session/appointment that is being scheduled. They support multiple other options such as session duration, color, automatic emails, etc.
  • Calendar Sub-Types
    • For example, if you were a portrait photographer you could have a calendar type of "Session" with a calendar sub-type linked to the "Session" calender type of "Family Sesssion", "New Born Session", etc.
    • Calendar sub-types are the same as calendar types but allow you to organize your calendar in a efficient manner. 
  • Calendar Filters
    • StudioCloud supports setting different calendar filters to view your calendar based on different resources
  • Calendar Resources
    • StudioCloud supports scheduling based on employees, equipment, and locations
