Illustrative example. The dates and amounts below are provided for practice.
A household wants a family-only review that includes a reunion and a moving day, but excludes work records. A consistent category is more useful here than placing “family” somewhere in every title.
Create a controlled view
Add “Family reunion” as Family Event on July 10, 2027 with Every year. Add “Moving day” as Family Event on July 24, 2027 with One time. Keep a July 17 work anniversary under Work Anniversary.
Choose Family Event in Filter by Category. Only the reunion and moving day should remain. Clear the filter and all three records return. Search and category filters work together, so clear an old search term if the family view unexpectedly looks empty.
Read the spacing
The two family events are fourteen elapsed days apart. Counting July 10 as Day 1 puts July 24 at Day 15, which answers a different question. Use the two-week gap to decide whether preparations can share a weekend.
In July 2028, the reunion appears again while the one-time move does not. The past moving record remains in the tracker until you delete it. Categories describe the view, and repeat rules describe future occurrences. Set both deliberately rather than assuming all Family Event entries recur.
