What is the difference between Personal and Work?
Compare what each schedule type records and when to use it.
2 min read
Personal and Work do not indicate how important a schedule is. Choose the type based on what you need to record and how you want to use it later.
Personal schedules
Personal is a good fit for appointments, errands, medical visits, workouts, and other plans that only need a few details. It is designed for quick entry around a title.
- Title
- Date and time
- Location
- Checklist items
- Notes
- A date range or repeat
Work schedules
Use Work when you need to keep customer details, job records, amounts, or assignees with a schedule. The form you choose controls which fields and record-keeping tools are available.
- Use Quick form to record only a title, location, checklist items, and notes.
- Use a custom work form for customer details, addresses, amounts, and fields you define.
- Depending on the form, use checklists, timers, and before-and-after photos.
- Preview and share a document or PDF from supported completed work schedules.
- Assign team members and use shared forms in a team calendar.
How calendars affect the schedule type
- My Calendar can contain both personal and work schedules.
- Team calendars can contain work schedules only.
- A work schedule saved to My Calendar remains your private schedule and is not shared with a team.
