Calendar question

Hi

I have a number of people working for me in different locations for various amounts of time. I have looked at using external scheduling software but it's not really what I am looking for. I was wondering if Calendar is capable of linking with other apps/software that will enable me to not only track my staff but also add up the hours they are doing. I know this may be a lot to ask but I thought I would ask before I start to use one of the external pieces of software.

many thanks

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 13.3

Hi trace1mike,


Thank you for participating in the Apple Support Communities. We understand you'd like to use Calendar for your business and employee scheduling. You can share calendar accounts, but it may be too limited for what you're looking to do. This article explains more about this: Share calendar accounts on Mac - Apple Support.


"Share calendar accounts on Mac

Share your calendar account with people who use the same CalDAV or Exchange calendar service (for example, with fellow employees at your company). You can choose whether others can edit the calendar account or only view it.


Give another person access to your calendar account

  1. In the Calendar app  on your Mac, choose Calendar > Settings, then click Accounts.
  2. Select the calendar account.
  3. Click Delegation, click Edit, then click the Add button .
  4. Enter the name of the person you want to give access to, then choose his or her name from the list that appears.
    • If you’re giving access to a CalDAV account, select the Allow Write checkbox to let the person edit your calendars.
    • If you’re giving access to an Exchange account, select the person’s level of access from the Calendars column.


See calendar accounts you have access to

  1. In the Calendar app  on your Mac, choose Calendar > Settings, then click Accounts.
  2. Select the calendar account, then click Delegation.
    • A CalDAV account appears in the “Accounts I can access” list.
    • For an Exchange account, click Add button , then enter the user name of the person who gave you access.

3. To see a delegated account’s calendars in the main Calendar window, select Show.

4. To see a delegated account’s calendars in a new window, choose Window > [account name].


Make events private

If you have a shared calendar account, you can make private events that can’t be viewed by others.

  1. In the Calendar app  on your Mac, double-click or force click an event, then click the event’s date.
  2. Select the Private checkbox.

If there is no Private checkbox, the event either has invitees or isn’t administered through a CalDAV or Exchange server.


Instead of sharing your entire account, you can share individual calendars."


Take care.
