Kitomba tabs overview

No matter where you are in Kitomba, some core elements remain visible at all times:

• File and Help menus (top left)
• Screen tabs (top of the window)

Sometimes Kitomba will display a pop‑up window—for example, when creating an appointment. You must complete or close the pop‑up before interacting with the main Kitomba window again.

The Calendar tab is where most day‑to‑day activity happens. It displays client appointments in a calendar layout.

You can:

• View Day view (all staff)
• View Week view (a single staff member)
• Switch between views at any time
• Create appointments by double‑clicking a timeslot
• Create new client cards during the appointment‑booking process
