Calendar & Fristen

2 min readUpdated May 27, 2026Auch auf Deutsch verfuegbar

Kalender (/kalender) combines appointments (Termine), legal deadlines (Fristen), and follow-ups (Wiedervorlagen) in one calendar view.

Calendar views

Switch between day, week, and month views. Events from all cases you can access appear here; filter by case, type, or assignee.

Color coding typically distinguishes:

  • Termine — meetings, hearings, calls
  • Fristen — legal deadlines
  • Wiedervorlagen — reminders to follow up

Create a Termin

Open Kalender

Click Neuer Termin or click a time slot.

Enter details

Title, start/end, location, participants, and optional Akte link.

Set reminders

Configure reminder schedules so notifications fire before the event.

Save

Conflicts with other events may be highlighted — adjust time if needed.

Fristen (legal deadlines)

Fristen are legally significant deadlines — often with dual-control verification (Vier-Augen-Prinzip).

ActionDescription
CreateUse the Frist wizard; link to Akte and choose preset rules where configured
VerifySecond lawyer confirms the deadline date (if required by firm policy)
DelegateAssign monitoring to another team member
ChainRelated Fristen (e.g. response → reply) appear as a chain
ErfüllenMark fulfilled when the legal act is completed

Unverified Fristen may appear on Mein Schreibtisch until verified.

Notfrist and holiday rules depend on your firm's Bundesland and Frist presets under Verwaltung. Incorrect presets cause wrong dates — verify setup with your admin.

Wiedervorlagen

Wiedervorlagen are follow-up reminders (call client, check status). They appear on the calendar and Schreibtisch but are not court Fristen.

External sync

If your firm connects Outlook or Google Calendar, sync status is shown in calendar settings. Events can be pushed to external calendars per user configuration (admin enables connectors).
