calendaring

Planning time slots

Calendaring is the practice of scheduling and managing appointments, meetings, and events using a calendar system.

The term emerged with digital scheduling tools: The team uses shared calendaring to coordinate meetings.

In legal and business contexts, calendaring specifically means entering deadlines or court dates into a tracking system: The paralegal is responsible for calendaring all filing deadlines.
