About This Feature
Overview
Add Event to Calendar is a calendar creation feature in WPS Collaboration on Windows. It helps you place personal reminders, meeting plans, and daily schedules directly into the calendar view.
Core tasks include:
- Create an event from the + Add Event button when you want to enter full details from the calendar home page.
- Create an event by double-clicking a target date when you want to start from a specific day.
- Create an event from the right-click menu when you want to work directly on a selected date.
- Create an event from the + entry on a date when you want to add a schedule item while browsing the calendar.
This feature fits personal reminders, meeting planning, team scheduling, and daily task tracking. The entry points are different, but they all open the same event editing window for consistent input.

| Capability Summary | Supports four ways to create an event: + Add Event, double-clicking a date, right-clicking a date, and clicking the + on a date. All entries open the same editing window. | Outlook Calendar supports creating an event, adding a title, time, location, attendees, and recurrence settings. | Google Calendar supports creating an event by clicking an empty time slot, using the Create button, or using quick event creation. | Notion Calendar supports creating events from a time slot and adding details, participants, rooms, and event types. | Adobe official help pages do not present a native collaborative calendar event creation workflow comparable to WPS calendar scheduling. |
