Calendar
Visualize your OKR timeline, track upcoming deadlines, and manage events with Leemu's integrated calendar view.
Calendar Overview
The Leemu calendar provides a visual timeline of all your OKR-related events and deadlines. Built on FullCalendar, it offers a rich, interactive experience for managing your schedule alongside your objectives.
Access the calendar from the Calendar item in the main sidebar. It automatically populates with events from your OKRs, strategic goals, and manually created entries.
Event Types
The calendar displays several types of events, each with a distinct color and icon for quick identification:
Goal Due
Deadline dates for objectives and key results. Automatically created when you set a due date on any OKR.
Strategic Goal Due
Deadline dates for company-level strategic goals. These are high-priority milestones that drive team OKRs.
Check-In
Scheduled check-in dates for key result progress updates. Helps your team maintain a regular cadence of reviews.
Milestone
Key milestones and important dates you define manually. Use these to mark launches, reviews, or other significant moments.
Other
General-purpose events for meetings, planning sessions, or any other calendar entry that relates to your OKR workflow.
Calendar Views
Switch between views using the controls at the top of the calendar to find the perspective that works best for your needs:
Day View
A detailed hourly breakdown of a single day. Ideal for checking what is due today and planning your immediate tasks.
Week View
Seven-day overview showing all events in a weekly grid. Great for planning your week and spotting upcoming deadlines.
Month View
The default view showing the full month. Provides a high-level picture of your OKR timeline and upcoming milestones.
List View
A chronological list of all upcoming events. Perfect for quickly scanning what is coming up without the visual grid layout.
