Today Board and My Week Views

The Today board and My Week are Manifold’s two views onto the same scheduled work. The Today board is the office’s single-day command centre, and My Week reshapes the same commitments for an engineer’s phone across the days ahead. Both read from the same underlying schedule, so a change made in one place shows up in the other.

  • The Today board shows checks scheduled for today in the organisation timezone.
  • My Week shows an engineer’s week in morning, afternoon, and evening band cards.
  • Sole traders and managers can drag to reschedule; engineers see a read-only week.
  • Clash tiles surface conflicts so they can be resolved before the day starts.
  • Both views group checks into the same morning, afternoon, and evening bands used in Scheduling and the Calendar, so a job looks the same wherever you view it.
  • The organisation timezone set in Settings governs which day a check falls under on both views, so a late-evening booking does not slip onto the wrong day.

Using Today and My Week

Use these two views for two different jobs. Today keeps the office honest about what is due right now and who is covering it, while My Week helps an engineer plan a sensible week of travel and access windows in advance rather than discovering the day’s shape one job at a time.

  • Start the day from Today to confirm what is due and who is covering it.
  • Use My Week on the phone to plan travel and order visits sensibly.
  • Combine with the route planner to reduce drive time across the day.
  • See Route Planner for turning a My Week list into a travel-ordered, navigable route.
