How to use Wrike’s monthly planner template
Ready to organize your monthly tasks but not sure where to start? First, let’s take a look at the specific tools you’ll be using.
Wrike’s monthly planner template has all the features you need to kick-start your task scheduling.

So, now you’re ready to use the monthly planner template in your Wrike workspace.
Luckily, this template is highly intuitive — all you need to do is follow these three steps to get your new online calendar planner up and running.
Step 1: Submit your request
Search for the in-built request form, which is labeled “Monthly Planner.” Enter the task name, start and end date, and the team that will perform the task.
Include the urgency level and any additional comments before submitting the form. It will now appear as a task in your “Monthly Planner” space.
Step 2: Track team progress
There are individual folders for each department (Finance, Human Resources, Sales, etc.) Tailor these to suit your organizational structure and add relevant projects.
View all team projects at a glance using the color-coded calendar. You can also get a bird’s-eye view of company-wide projects with the “Teams” dashboard.
Step 3: Prioritize your workload
Use the “Task Status” dashboard to monitor tasks as they move through various stages, from “New” to “In Progress” to “Completed.” Your “Urgency” dashboard will identify high-priority tasks, so you know which ones to focus on first.
The monthly planner template also includes an in-built “Overdue Tasks” report to help you address delays quickly.
