Calendar Quick Add

Last Update: August 30th, 2023

Quick Add events are best used for non-fee associated facility uses like a City Commission meeting, an Independence Day pavilion closure, or a Parks and Rec Board meeting for instance. Quick Adds are not best used for activities or reservations (even non-fee reservations) for outside-department use or events that are tied to a user. It is better to create an activity with a schedule or a reservation with $0 fee for those instances because of reporting and usage.

Please note: the calendar view feature shown in the video has been deprecated and is no longer needed to create the Quick Add Event
