Calendar Admin and Manager(s) can access the Control Panel with the **Control Panel** button located in the bottom left of the screen. Once you are logged in, this button changes to the Inbox.
**Inbox (Button with Your Name on It)**
- This button opens your personal inbox and displays the number of items (if any) awaiting action.
- The inbox contains:
- **PUBLIC**: Initial requests from the public to have you be the primary organizer of an event if your calendar allows public submissions.
- Denying these requests will prevent them from being entered into the system.
- **CROSS LIST**: Requests from other calendar managers to cross-list an event they are organizing.
- Denying these requests will simply not add them to your calendar. They will not delete the event from the system.
Twice every day (4 am and 6 pm), calendar Admin and Managers receive reminder emails from the system when there is an event pending for approval/denial in the Inbox. If you receive a reminder email but see no pending event(s) in the Inbox, the other Admin/Manager(s) has gone in and approved/denied the event(s).

**Calendar Selector**
- If you have access to more than one calendar in the system, you can click on this button to choose between them.
- You can use the search box to quickly find a specific calendar among a large list.
.
**Users**
- Visible only to the Admin of a calendar.
- Controls the list of managers for a calendar.
- New managers are added by their NetID.
- You may add a nickname to help you remember whose NetID that is.
- Promoting a Manager to Admin will demote you back to a Manager, and you will lose access to this tool afterward.
.
**Settings**
- Visible only to the Admin of a calendar.
- **Allow Public Submissions Checkbox**: Adds your calendar to those available for public event submissions. Unchecking this will prevent others from submitting events with you as the organizer.
- **Allow Cross-Listing Invites (Promotional Invites)**: When checked, allows the Managers of other calendars to send you an invitation to cross-promote an event they are organizing. Unchecked will remove this option.
- Unchecking both of the above will prevent any items from appearing in the inbox and will stop most notifications.
- **Make Calendar Events Private:** Any events submitted with your calendar set as the primary calendar will not show up on the events calendar home page or the All Calendars list; they will only show up when viewing your specific calendar.
.
**Logs**
- Contains a history of recent activity on a particular calendar. The most recent entries are listed in a table, and a button provides the option to download a full history of all actions associated with a calendar.
- Primarily a troubleshooting tool but can also be used to track the efforts of multiple calendar Managers.
