Clicking a client's event on the dashboard opens the **per-event view** — the one place
to manage that event. It's the same portal the couple sees, plus DJ controls.

## What's on it

- The event header (title, date, venue) with a **countdown** to the big day and a
  **status dropdown** right there — move the event through your pipeline without leaving
  (see [event status](/event-status)).
- A collapsed **Booking form** section with everything the couple submitted — expand it
  to review or edit any answer at any point in the event's life.
- The event's **checklist** (titled after the event type, e.g. "Wedding Checklist") with
  live, derived completion — see [Checklists & forms](/checklist-and-forms).
- Each checklist item links to its task page: the **contract**, **payments**, the
  **planning form**, the **[timeline](/planning-form)**, **[add-ons](/add-ons)**, and the
  **[playlist](/playlist-generator)**.
- **Print / share** — export any combination of sections as a printable document (see
  [Print & share](/print-share-document)).

## Managing the checklist inline

As a DJ you manage the checklist right here — no separate admin screen:

- **Add** a custom item for this event (with an optional link and due date).
- **Delete** an item you don't need — and restore it later if you change your mind.
- **Override** a bound item (mark it done with a note) when the task happened off-platform.

Progress updates immediately, and the dashboard's per-event progress bar reflects it.

## Sharing with the couple

The couple reaches the same event through their portal and sees their checklist and forms.
When they complete a task, the bound item turns green for both of you.
