Calendar attentions are divided in two types: general attentions and custom attentions. The calendar attention list can be used as a checklist or action list.
General attentions are predefined attentions for:
No heat
No insemination
In heat

It is possible to use all, none or a selection of the predefined general calendar attentions. The settings for calendar attentions can be changed.
Go to Settings > Calendar > General.
Click on the tab Attentions.
(Un)check a box to (de)active the calendar attention.
If necessary, change the number of days after which the calendar attention should be generated.
Click on Submit to save the attentions.
