Due view (tasks + approvals with deadlines)
The Due view is what makes XBuddy Calendar more than a meeting tool: it gathers every task and approval request that has a due date and lays them on the timeline next to your events.
When to use
Open it at the start of the day or week to see everything that has a deadline in one place, instead of checking Tasks and Approvals separately.
Before you start
- You need the
calendar:readpermission. Tasks and approvals only appear if you can see them in their own apps. - The Due view lives at
/calendar?filter=due(menu item “Tasks Due”). - It is a read-through of deadlines, not a separate to-do list.
Steps
Open the Due view
In Calendar, switch to the Due view.
See everything that’s due
Tasks assigned to you (from Projects & Tasks) and approvals awaiting you (from Approvals) appear with their deadlines.

Click any due item to open the underlying task or approval in its own app and act on it.
Tips & common mistakes
- Marking a task done happens in Tasks, not in the calendar; the Due view updates afterwards.
- The Tasks calendar (
/tasks/calendar) is a different screen that only shows task due dates, not calendar events. - Open conclusions assigned to you from meetings are tracked on a separate page; see Meetings & conclusions.
- Review the Due view every morning so approvals do not expire unnoticed.
