Inspector Calendar and Office Calendar

This article explains the two calendar routes—Inspector Calendar and Office Calendar—what appears on each, and how filtering differs.

Where to find them

  • Open Calendar in the sidebar.

  • Hover Calendar (desktop expanded sidebar) or open the mobile menu to choose Inspector Calendar or Office Calendar.

  • The browser title for the inspector view is Calendar; the office view is titled Office Calendar.


When you can open each view

  • The sidebar shows Inspector Calendar when your login satisfies its calendar permission rule.

  • Office Calendar appears when your login satisfies the office-calendar permission rule.

  • The inspector calendar page itself runs an access check when it loads; the office calendar page runs a separate check for office access. If you follow a link but lack access, you will get the app’s unauthorized handling instead of the grid.


What you see

Inspector Calendar

  • A grid of inspector rows (name and photo).

  • Each row can show vacations, events, inspections, slots, and recurring items on the timeline.

  • When your company tracks radon on the calendar, radon-related items can appear on inspector rows.

  • A filter control opens a popover to narrow rows by team and service choices (teams and services load when you open the filter).

  • Clicking a slot to create a job sends you to Schedule from the built-in handler.

Office Calendar

  • A grid of office staff rows (name and photo).

  • Rows show vacations, events, and recurring items (no inspection job lane in the same way as inspectors).

  • The same floating actions are available for new events (see the calendar events article).


Shared actions

  • Bottom-right floating menu (when shown on your screen):

    • Add Event

    • Add Recurring Event


After you make changes

  • Creating or editing events closes the modal and returns the address bar query to a clean state (? cleared) on success; the calendar refreshes from the server.


Caveats

  • Inspector rows respect self-only versus full inspector-calendar access inside the grid: with self-only access you only see your own inspector row; with broader access you can see other inspectors (subject to team/service filters).

  • Hover sub-links are not permission-filtered in the sidebar component; you can still see a label and get blocked at the destination—ask an administrator if that happens.
