Daily Totals
Each day cell displays total event hours (or days). If detailed view is enabled, you’ll also see subtotals by source.

💡 Hover over totals to quickly review how work is distributed across sources.
Event Hours vs User Hours
The Event hours and User hours time-basis options are available only when the calendar is based on a user-specific resource field.
Some events involve multiple users. To help you understand time distribution:
Event hours = actual duration of the event
User hours = event duration multiplied by number of participants
Example: A 1-hour meeting with 3 users
→ Event hours: 1h
→ User hours: 3h
|
Working Days Mode
You can choose to calculate totals by working days only.
Non-working days are highlighted, helping you see how schedules are affected.
