A quick calendar filter dims out the tasks and events on the calendar that don't match your criteria. Matching tasks and events are unaffected. The quick calendar filter is only active in day and workday calendar views.

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Field Service** > **Dispatching** > **Dispatcher Workspace**.

2.  Select **Dispatcher Workspace**.

3.  Select **Calendar filter** before the calendar.

4.  Select a criterion, an operator, and a value.

5.  Choose from the following.

    |Option|Description|
    |------|-----------|
    |**Add a condition**|Select **+ Add Filter** to add another condition, and select **AND** or **OR** to determine how the conditions combine.|
    |**Save as default**|Select **Save as default** to apply this filter automatically each time you open Dispatcher Workspace.|

6.  Select **Filter calendar**.


## Result

Tasks and events on the calendar that don't match the filter are dimmed out.
