You have three different types of planning in Newsroom Planner.
Calendar events. Let your teams manage, browser and search events, like press conferences, football games, concerts or other events. A Calendar Event covers all info you need about the event, like date and time, description, links, images, category and other tagging.
Planning Cards. It's about story planning. When you decide to cover an event, you need an easy way to create, browse and filter your stories. A Planning Card is like a folder for your content, with meta data, links and other info you need.
Assignments. Is a part of a Planning Card, and is used to tell who is doing what and when. It's about resource planning.
These three components are interconnected. At an Event you add Planning Cards, at a Planning Card you add Assignments. Further on in this manual, this will become clearer. (If you do not want to add a Planning Card to an Event you do not have to, but an Assignment always needs a connection to a Planning.)
