Along the top toolbar within the calendar you have multiple filter options.
Filter by Social Profile
Use the account picker to select the handles you would like to see, it will default to all handles selected.
Filter by Content
Use the Content drop-down to filter the posts by All, Approved, Assigned, Assigned to Me, Rejected, or Unassigned.
Filter by Tags

Calendar View
The calendar will default to the week view in the timezone set in your profile settings, but you can easily view your calendar in the monthly or stacked view.
The Stacked view offers a more compact view of all posts each day by removing hour blocks on the calendar and instead putting everything in chronological order.

You can download the calendar content (posts) into a CSV file or print to a PDF. Select Download and open the file once ready.

If the post is in draft or scheduled, you can Delete, Duplicate, or Edit the post directly from the post within the calendar.
If the post has been published, failed or pending, you have the option to duplicate the post.

The state of a post is easily identified based on the color in its heading. A legend at the bottom of the calendar identifies each color.
This tool bar also filters the calendar for content by status. Simply click on the icon.
Selecting a Post
Selecting a post will show you the Post Details, where you can review the status, content, and tags. You can also see the details of the post, such as when it was created and by whom. For scheduled posts and drafts, you can delete or edit the message.
Workbench
The calendar features a workbench slide-out on the far left-hand side for actioning drafts and approving posts.
Drafts
You will find all unscheduled drafts under Drafts. From here, you have the option to edit the draft, or you can use the drag-and-drop feature to schedule the draft directly on the calendar.
