The Event Navigator is a useful tool for viewing the link status of flow events. Open the Event Navigator from the Planning Schematic main menu by choosing:

- **Event > by Regulator** to view flow events for orders downstream of a linking regulator. This is a useful option during the planning process when you will be planning on a pool by pool basis.
- **Event > by Plan** to view all flow events for the current plan. This is a useful option when you are reviewing the progress of the plan to see what remains to be planned.

# Layout of the Event Navigator

## Event Statuses

The status of flow events is indicated using the following styles:

- Color - indicates whether or not the event has any links.
- Asterisk - an asterisk indicates that the event starts and finishes on the same day.

| **Example** | **Description** |
| --- | --- |
| <span style="color: #ff5630">**Finish event (red)**</span> | Finish event with no links. Event does not start and finish on the same day. |
| <span style="color: #ff5630">**Finish event* **</span><span style="color: #ff5630">(red)</span> | Finish event with no links. Event starts and finishes on the same day. |
| <span style="color: #6554c0">**Start event **</span><span style="color: #6554c0">(purple)</span> | Start event with no links. Event does not start and finish on the same day. |
| <span style="color: #6554c0">**Start event* **</span><span style="color: #6554c0">(purple)</span> | Start event with no links. Event starts and finishes on the same day. |
| Any event | Start or finish event with some linked and some unlinked flow. Event does not start and finish on the same day. |
| Any event***** | Start or finish event with some linked and some unlinked flow. Event starts and finishes on the same day. |

## Filtering Events

Filter events to show different types of event. For example, show all unlinked events so you can complete sufficient links to finalise the plan. To apply a filter, click **View** on the Event Navigator menu and choose one of these options:

| **Filter** | **Description** |
| --- | --- |
| Unlinked | Show events that are not linked at all. This view excludes partially linked events because you do not have to fully link these to finalise the plan. |
| Available | Show events that are unlinked or are partially linked (that is, there is still flow available for linking). |
| Linked | Show events that are fully or partially linked. |
| Autolinked | Show events that were autolinked. |
