Accessing your Calendar
Wherever you are in Penelope your Calendar is always a single click away. To open your calendar simply click the Calendar tab on the far right-hand side of your screen. The calendar will slide open over the top of your current page.
Calendar – The Basics
You can access an event directly from your Calendar by clicking on the event name. Once you are viewing the event page it will be possible to make changes to the event (depending on your permissions), however, it is not possible to make changes from within the calendar.
It is also possible to change your calendar view, filter by site, hide availability, hide i-times and events.

How to Print your Calendar
It is not possible to print a copy of your calendar, however, the My Worker Day Sheet report is a useful alternative.
The My Worker Day Sheet report lists out all scheduled events for a specific date for the Worker running the report. In addition to displaying a broad range of peripheral information relative to the events, it reports on their coverage usages and limits for billing purposes. If no specific date is selected the report will select today’s date.
The report can be accessed by clicking on the Reports tab on the sidebar.
