Using Calendar Filters
Zanda calendar filters are a powerful tool that can help you manage and track appointments in the calendar more efficiently.
By using the calendar filters, you can display and count appointments that match specific criteria such as note status, invoice status, and appointment flags. This feature ensures that appointments needing attention are easily identifiable, making your workflow smoother and more organized.
The filters you can apply include:
- Note Status: Filter by appointments with no note, draft, or completed notes.
- Invoice Status: Filter by appointments with no invoice, unpaid, or paid invoices.
- Appointment Status: Filter by appointment status ( Pending, Confirmed, Arrived, Completed, Rescheduled, Cancelled, Late Concellation, No Show.)
- Appointment Flags: Filter appointments using custom flags you’ve assigned.
- Resources: Filter appointments by resource items allocated to appointments.
- Rooms: Filter appointments by Room items allocated to appointments.

How to Use Filters
Important Notes:
-
The Calendar Filter feature is available to all users, no special user permission needed!
-
When you select multiple items within a category (e.g. "No Note" and "Draft") the filter will find all appointments that match either of the selected items (it acts as an OR operator).
-
When you select items across categories (e.g. "No Notes" and "No Invoice" and "Resource A") the filter will find all appointments that match both of the selected items from each category (it acts as an AND operator).
-
Click the calendar filters button on the calendar toolbar.
-
Choose the one or more of desired criteria* from the filter options available (note status, invoice status, appointment flags).
-
Collapse and expand all filter groups with a single click using the header icon (with “Collapse all” / “Expand all” tooltips).
-
Collapse or expand individual sections to hide filters you’re not working with right now.
-
See how many filters you’ve selected at a glance via a badge next to the filter header that automatically counts your checked items.
- Once you've made the filters selection, click Apply.

-
The calendar display view will adjust to show appointments that match the selected criteria. Appointments that do not match the criteria will appear with reduced transparency.
-
Check the filter button counter for a quick overview of how many appointments meet your criteria.

-
To clear the filtered selection, click the calendar filters button again and select 'Clear All'. Close the filters display once done.
Important Note: Personal and Group appointments are only filtered by the “Appointment Flag” and "Resource" Filters, as note or invoice status do not apply to these types of appointments.
