Calendar

The HorseBook calendar brings together everything happening on your farm — scheduled appointments, shows, training sessions, and auto-generated reminders from document expirations and medical due dates.

Calendar Views

Month View

The default view showing the full month. Events appear as colored dots or labels on each day. Click a day to see all events for that date.

Week View

A more detailed view showing each day of the week with events laid out by time. Useful for busy weeks when you need to see how your schedule fits together.

Event Types

HorseBook supports ten event types, each with a distinct color:

Manual Events

• Appointment — general appointments (vet visits, inspections, etc.)
• Training — riding lessons, training sessions, clinics
• Show — horse shows, competitions, and events
• Farrier — scheduled farrier visits
• Vet — scheduled veterinary appointments
• Custom — anything else you want to track

Auto-Generated Events

These events are created automatically based on your records:

• Medical Expiration — generated when a vaccine, Coggins, or deworming is approaching expiration
• Document Expiration — generated when a Coggins certificate, health certificate, or insurance policy is nearing its expiration date
• Breeding Booking — scheduled breeding dates from the reproduction module
• Foaling Window — expected foaling range for pregnant mares (320-350 days from breeding)
• Pregnancy Check — scheduled pregnancy check dates
