# View Calendar (Month)

Selecting the _**Calendar (Month)**_ entry from the _**View**_ menu will display the calendar of the current month.

Depending on your permissions and the default settings set by the administrator you will see users and absences of the current month.

## Display Options

Administrators have several options to alter the display of the calendar a bit. Here is an example where the users are grouped by group plus an absence count is added to each user’s name field. Also, the days in the past a colored gray.

## Quick Edit

If you are allowed to edit a user’s calendar, just click anywhere in the row of that user. A tooltip also tells you about this option.

## Filters

The buttons on top of the Calendar display provides options to filter the display, narrow down the list of users you see. Any of you filter settings, when saved, will be stored in your profile and applied again when you look at the calendar again. The “Reset” button removes your filter settings from your profile.

## Responsive Display

If the administrator has enabled mobile display support, you will be able to select your screen width via the \[ Screen: ] button. The calendar display will then be adjusted (broken down in sections) to your device’s screen size. Only as many days as fit on your screen will be shown in one horizontal section. Several horizontal sections are produced so you only have to scroll vertically to view the month.

If your exact width is not in the list, select the next higher one.
