Filters help you narrow your event list to the ones you want to see on the calendar or table. Filter the events, and then share the events or run a report.
You can filter events from the Calendar tab.
-
Filter to your Groups and Registration feeds.
-
The Event Request feed lets you see pending event requests in the calendar before they are approved. These filters are enabled for assigned default event owners and approvers. They are disabled for everyone else by default.
-
Filter events based on your access to Calendar. Anyone with access to Calendar can view any event or event request form but may have different roles and permissions for specific events. Find those events by filtering with My Events.
-
Filter by the event's approval status, whether the requested rooms or resources have been approved, are pending, or have been declined.
If you want to ensure events have been approved, filter by Pending to quickly approve or decline resources if you're in the appropriate approval group.
Tip
In the month view, events are color-coded based on their approval status. A yellow highlighted event indicates it has rooms or resources pending approval. A red highlighted event means a room or resource requested for the event was rejected.
-
Filter events based on the event owner, which is helpful when updating the owners for multiple events.
-
Events can be published or hidden on Church Center for congregants. Change the Church Center visibility of an event from the Event Settings.
-
Filter events by the Planning Center product they are connected to.
-
Filter the calendar based on a room or resource reserved for that event. Start typing the room or resource, and then choose the correct option from the dropdown. If you filter by a folder, the calendar filters to events using any items within the folder.
-
Any tags used in the current view will populate in the sidebar. Select a tag to show only events with that tag. If you want to see all the tags, choose it from the dropdown.
Caution
If you don't see any tags when Active tags is selected, it means none of your events have tags assigned to them. Assign tags to the events, and try the filter again.
The My events filter helps owners, managers, approvers, and subscribers find their events.
-
The owner is responsible for the event. By default, the owner is the person who created the event, but the owner can be reassigned to that position. The owner is listed in the event settings.
-
Managers have the same access as the owner and can change the event. Managers are listed in the event settings.
-
An approver is part of the approval group that approves the request for a room or resource.
-
A subscriber receives information about an event's activity. Event owners, managers, and approvers are always subscribed to their events, but someone can subscribe to an event from the event's Activity tab.
Add tags to the filter bar to find events that have not been assigned tags from that group.
If you have a required tag group and want to see how many of your events are missing a tag from it, use the Table View to find them. In the Table View, add a tag from the group and change it to “none.”
From here, you can use Bulk Editing to apply the missing tags to these events!
