Entry symbols

You can group entries together using “entry symbols”. An entry symbol is a letter you can use to identify particular entries, for example, M for meetings. The entry symbol can also be used to show entries in the Year planner.

Birthdays and anniversaries

1.Move to the Anniversary view and just start typing, or select the command for creating a new anniversary entry from the Entry menu in any view.

2.Type in the details of the anniversary, e.g. ‘Jane’s birthday’ and set the day and month of the anniversary.

3.Press the Alarm/More button if you wish to specify other details about the anniversary, e.g. the start year and whether you want to see the start year (e.g. a person’s year of birth) and/or the number of years since the start year (e.g. their age).

Anniversaries are marked with a candle symbol ( ).
