Using Business Deadlines & Renewals Planner

How to start, keep, reopen, and use your Business Deadlines & Renewals Planner work.

Keep obligations, preparation, dates, and confirmations together.

Open Business Deadlines & Renewals Planner

Start with the work in front of you

  1. Add the obligation and current occurrence. Record where dates came from and whether they are confirmed.
  2. Add preparation steps, outstanding questions, and progress. Close an occurrence only when its outcome is known.
  3. Review proposed next occurrences and selected calendar dates. Download editable register (.json) for the complete working record.

Keep it and pick it up again

JSON restores the register. An ICS calendar file contains selected all-day entries only and cannot restore the register.

  1. Check your browser’s Downloads for the actual file. Keep the .json extension; a meaningful name and date can help you recognize the copy.
  2. Choose Open saved work below, select that file, and check the tool and summary shown.
  3. Continue in the tool. If there is already work open there, review the replacement prompt. Cancel to keep editing or download the current work before replacing it.

What to keep in view

Calendar exports are copies, not a subscription. Repeated imports can create duplicates. Notifications depend on the calendar you use, and legal or contractual dates need confirmation from the relevant source.

If it does not look right

If the file will not open, leave the original unchanged and read the error. A reading copy cannot substitute for the editable JSON. If you reopened an older copy, look for a later download; do not overwrite the current work while checking.
