"I'm visual, and TCP beats the tar out of Outlook for helping me see both the big picture and the day's calling details for projects, which are tracked with an Access database. I have categories for prospects, 'Nibbles', and established gigs; long-range planning (where do I want to be when); travel/stay parked days; personal items; calls to make; Holidays. Popping all of this in and out at will and as needed is great for productivity."

Dave, Burning Bush League

Our calendar software is used in a wide and very diverse range on sectors. Medical, Financial, Web Site and Video Game Design, Advertising, Racing, Technology, Personal Fitness and almost any small to large business you can think of.

What do all these sectors have in common? They all share a need for an easy to use and flexible visual scheduling tool, like The Calendar Planner. Whatever your needs are, simple or complex, small or large, the basic problem of easily creating, maintaining and publishing a schedule is a problem everyone shares and until now there have been very few choices.

Find out how this unique scheduling calendar, The Calendar Planner can help you, no matter what "industry" you find yourself in. Click on a heading below for more detail:

• Organize around any type of project:
  Unlike many rigid scheduling programs, The Calendar Planner will allow you to quickly and easily create and organize your project any way you need to. Keep everything in one folder or organize by event type, project, department, any structure you choose. This allows you to easily show and hide groups or apply style with the click of a mouse. Even save your structure for re-use on the next project.
• Publish your calendar as PDF or web page:
  Quickly output a calendar as PDF (using a PDF driver) or simply save as a web page so anyone on your team, anywhere, can easily access it. You can even filter your calendar, so only what you want is included in your PDFs or web pages. Web pages even auto expand to show all your events, no matter how many you have scheduled!
• File Management:
  Add web site links or any file such as documents or images to any event or even notes within the calendar. Open them by clicking on the event name or link within a note.  Great for associating related material to events like directions to locations, meeting notes, agendas, detailed instructions, etc. Associate to a single event or multiple events of the same type.
• Smart Event Scheduling:
  Create recurring events using our powerful smart scheduling feature. Simply set your available days and choose your event schedule options and The Calendar Planner will automatically schedule them around your availability. Wrangle even complex schedules and constraints instantly.
• Combine and share calendars:
  Share one or more files over the network for multiple people to view and coordinate editing using our read and write access options and auto update notification. You can even send selected portions of calendars to others via email, for quick import into their calendar. Even combine multiple calendars into one. Work alone and create a detailed schedule for your project or department or share and combine calendars among your entire team.
• Visual Resource Management:
  Manage resource usage and availability in the calendar by date or time ranges.  Maintain independent names for each task or event for a resource, and use our auto color coding to quickly visualize resource usage.
• Show and hide:
  Easily show or hide events or entire folders with the click of a mouse. This filtering allows you to quickly view and print only specific projects, phases, event types, departments and resources and tasks, giving you unlimited views of your schedule, all in a single file. These "filtered views" of your calendar can easily be saved for quick access later and used for displaying, printing or sharing.
• Scalable Day View:
  Most traditional calendar and scheduling software use a vertical display for each day. The Calendar Planner offers a unique and detailed horizontal day view. This allows much more detail to be viewed if needed, for each task or event. It also allows multiple events to display at the same time. Use our day scale slider to display or print an entire 24 hour period or adjust to see a single hour.
• Irregular Event Tracking:
  Most calendars allow you to create recurring events like birthdays and anniversaries, weekly, monthly and yearly meetings, and appointment reminders and we do as well. However what about events that happen frequently but not always on the same day, like employee sick days? The Calendar Planner allows you to create a single event for anything and simply drag it to as many separate days as you need to. Each can have its own length, additional text, notes and even its own style. You can also navigate to each occurrence of an event from a single item. Ideal for employee scheduling, sick day and vacation tracking, managing client contacts, resource usage (Equipment, Rentals, Rooms), anything that does not always occur on the same dates.
• Detailed Notes:
  With The Calendar Planner you can attach notes to events and add detailed information, contact information, results of client contacts, reasons for employee sick days and more, and the notes will move with the events. Even add notes to unscheduled events and create detailed plans just waiting to be scheduled. You can also attach detailed notes to days as well as drag them between days.  When you print your calendar you can include a detailed notes report that lists every note you have entered (unless hidden), along with the date and event information.
• Rapidly Adjust to Changes:
  A major drawback of calendars has always been the inability to easily adjust to schedule changes. For example, making adjustments when a project has pushed by 2 weeks, could take hours. Our Push or Pull feature allows the entire project or just sections of it to be adjusted in seconds. Push or pull an entire project, a folder, or just a section of your schedule by days, weeks, months or years, leaving locked events untouched. You can even choose to push or pull from a specific date during your project. The software will automatically account for off days, ensuring your schedule remains accurate.
• Automatic Labeling:
  Automatic labeling can be used to show how long an event has worked or how long it has remaining. You can choose to display this at the beginning of each week or on the banner itself. You can even choose a start and finish label so no matter where you are in the calendar you can easily see when an even has just started and when it is in its final week. This is ideal for tracking production weeks, project phases, rentals, employee vacations and more.
• Item Linking:
  Link events together with a mouse click, so when one moves, all related events move - adjusting dependencies automatically. This is ideal for situations where events must always occur before or after another or need to be grouped by client, department, etc. You can even create detailed rules driven schedules that can be adjusted or scheduled by moving a single item.
• Off Days:
  When you need to use a calendar for business or project planning it must be able to account for non-working days. The Calendar Planner allows you to choose common off days and even set working and non working days individually. You can choose how they display and more importantly how events react to them. For example, you can choose to have events automatically hide on off days so when events overlap off days they do not show as working. When you move events or push and pull your schedule, the program will automatically fit your events around your working days, ensuring your schedule always remains accurate.
• Event Style and Position:
  Most calendar or scheduling software will allow you to create banners, but most don't allow the banners to be resized to display more than one row of text, or even allow you to choose a color, size, or what order they appear in each day. The Calendar Planner allows you to adjust style, font and color with the click of a mouse. You can apply style to individual events or all events in a folder. Ideal for assigning style to events from a certain department, project or client. You can also choose the exact order banners appear in each day or week. This ensures you can always display all your events just the way you need to.
• Unique Views:
  Our software offers unique views you won't find in other calendars or scheduling software. We offer 1-4 week views which allow the maximum number of elements to appear and allow you to focus on weekly events and tasks. We also offer a standard 1 month views as well as our unique 4-month view. All views can be used for display and for printing.
• Custom Views:
  Traditional calendar software normally prevents you from having more than a few items in a day or week. Our unique overlap indicator will alert you when an event does not display and allow you to scroll or adjust the view. Use the additional views we offer or you can even customize them around your unique schedule, to make sure you can always display and print all your events.
• Navigation:
  Use various methods of moving through your calendar by day, week, month or year. Use our unique view browser to jump between recent dates and views as you would in an internet browser.
• Find and Go To:
  Use Go To to instantly locate an event wherever it is in your calendar.  Our advanced find feature allows you to search for all occurrences of an item, like all sick days for an employee, or all vacation days, making it ideal for employee tracking. You can even find all events that are linked to another event. This is ideal for finding all items within a group, such as all contacts or events related to a single project, client or department.
• Easy and Powerful Interface:
  The Reel Logix team has over 40 years of experience in creating friendly, easy-to-use user interfaces which are used in all our software. We also offer the depth of features you expect in a sophisticated Windows XP application. Such as drag and drop, drag-able toolbars and lists, the ability to customize your toolbar sets and unlimited undo and redo.
• Reminders:
  Easily set birthday reminders and appointment reminders. Get reminded even if the software isn't running, so you never forget an important event again. View a list of all past and future reminders as well.
• Templates:
  Use the free starter templates provided for managing hundreds of common events or combine, modify and create your own. This allows you to create a standard set of events, tasks and resources you frequently manage and never retype anything again. You can even share and combine templates among the team so everyone uses the same structure.

If you are looking for an easy to use yet powerful scheduling calendar that is flexible enough to handle anything, The Calendar Planner is a great choice.
