By default, the template used for the calendar entries will show the ''Start Time'', ''End Time'' and ''Parent name'' [[standard fields]], as follows:

'''Note''': entering a new ''UTA Calendar Template'' will overwrite the existing default template.

 

The calendar entries can be color-coded using either the color settings on the [[type]] or the [[status]] of the listed {{l2}} activities. This setting is made on the [[UTA Settings - Entity]] tab.

Users are able to switch between event coloring based on [[Event Types|event type]] or calendar type on the fly from a drop down menu at the top of the calendar.

==Examples of Configuration==

This template supports the [[Web Page View Field Variables]] including [[sslogic]].

<br /><br />

'''Example:''' Presume a Level 2 Type called '''Site Visits''', and a custom field on that Level 2 Type called '''Site Location''' with a [[custom field ID]] of '''12345'''. <br />

You can use the following syntax on the "Calendar Fields" section of the [[UTA Settings - Miscellaneous|Miscellaneous]] tab of the [[UTA Settings Page]]:

 

:: ''&lt;!--@sslogic('@type@'='Site Visits')-->@#12345#@''

:: ''&lt;!--@end-->''

This will only display the '''Site Location''' field (field ID 12345) for '''Site Visits''' Level 2 type activities on the Level 1 calendar.

With multiple conditions:

::''&lt;!--@sslogic('@type@'='Site Visits' and '@statusname@'!='Closed')-->@#12345#@''::''&lt;!--@end-->''

Will do the same as above, but only if the '''Status''' of the Level 2 item is not ''Closed''.

Level 1 fields can be included using ''@parent.''fieldname''@''

==Controlling which Types and Statuses Display on the Calendar==

* To exclude any given [[Types|Level 2 Type]] from the Calendar, click the Lookup button next to ''Calendar Status'' on the [[Types#Type_Settings|Type settings page]] and select ''None''.

* The ''Calendar Status'' setting can be also be used to set the statuses, per Type, that are displayed on the Calendar.
