Quickstart Guide
Welcome to PW-TOOLS! This guide outlines the most important things to know to get started quickly.
1. Create your calendar
Everyone can create a calendar for free. This will set up the calendar, your first coordinator account, and optionally some sample data.
2. Set Up Your Calendar
Complete the onboarding process to name your calendar, set your congregation name, and upload a KML file defining your borders if applicable.
3. Add Publishers
Manage your publishers by sending email invitations, adding them manually, or sharing a self-registration link for them to sign up themselves.
4. Choose a Scheduling Mode
Decide between Shift System (for fixed schedules, campaigns, and key-men/leaders) or Flexible Calendar (for slot-based stand and item reservations).
5. Integrate Notifications
Keep everyone updated with news announcements, target group newsletters, or automated alerts via Telegram and SMS.
