Military OS product walkthrough Produced October 21, 2026, using synthetic local captures from October 21, 2026, fictional local demonstration. Finding a Chapter and its events This walkthrough shows how someone finds a Chapter, reads its news, and sees its events in Military OS. It then follows one Chapter event onto State and National calendars. The demonstration uses fictional names and sample data. We will first follow a visitor finding a Chapter, then show how a Chapter event can also appear on State and National calendars. We use National, State, and Chapter as example levels. A unit simply means one named part of the association, such as Northern State or River Chapter. 1. Find the Chapter On the home page, choose Find a chapter or unit. Type River into the search box and press Search or Enter. The result shows River Chapter and identifies Northern State above it. A visitor can search directly for a familiar name without first opening each level of the organisation. 2. Open the Chapter’s page River Chapter has its own public page. Overview brings together a few upcoming events and recent news items. The links along the top show where this Chapter sits in the association. Overview, News, and Events are the Chapter’s section choices. State and National pages follow the same pattern, so the labels stay familiar as someone browses different parts of the association. Read the Chapter’s news Choose News to read stories published by this Chapter. The Chapter name and its navigation stay visible, so the reader can tell whose news they are viewing. An officer or volunteer can send someone to this Chapter page rather than explaining where to search through the association’s wider news. 3. Read the event list Choose Events to see the Chapter’s event list. List is the starting view. This example shows a community workshop, with its date, time, venue, and a link to the event details. The event is already published for the Chapter. Its appearance here does not depend on State or National first agreeing to feature it on their own calendars. Choose which events to browse The Scope control means whose events you want to browse. Selected unit shows the chosen Chapter or other named part of the association. Association shows the events selected for the association-wide listing. All units is the broader view of published events across the organisation, including events outside that selected listing. Choose the month and scope, then Show events. These choices change what you see; they do not change any event. 4. Switch between List and Calendar Calendar is another way to look at the same events. Here the workshop appears on October twenty fourth. List remains available if you prefer to read the details in order. Previous and Next move between months. Today returns to the current month. Opening an entry leads to the existing event page, rather than creating another copy of the event. 5. Ask to appear on another calendar The Chapter can also request a place on a higher-level calendar. In this example it has asked State and National directly. National does not have to wait for the State decision. A listing means showing the existing event on that other calendar. It does not transfer ownership of the event. The question for the receiving staff is whether they want to include this event in their selected programme. 6. Review the State listing The person assigned to review Northern State’s calendar opens its review queue. This is the list of requests waiting for a decision. They read the event, choose a listing decision, confirm their review, and save. Only the State listing is decided. For this demonstration, one owner account has access to both calendars. In everyday use, staff must be given access to the calendar they review. State approval leaves National pending After State approval, National still says Awaiting review. The event can be listed for State while its National request remains undecided. Approving a listing does not give the reviewer permission to change the Chapter’s event details. Responsibility for the event and the decision to feature it are separate. The association listing is still empty The association-wide listing still shows no events in this example. That does not mean the Chapter workshop is private or cancelled. It remains on the Chapter’s own page and in the broader All units view. It means National has not yet selected it for the association listing. 7. Make the separate National decision National now reviews the same event and confirms its own listing decision. Saving that approval clears the National request from its pending queue. The State decision is unchanged. Each level is choosing where the event appears, while the Chapter continues to manage the event itself. 8. Check the result as a visitor After National approval, a signed-out visitor can see the workshop in the association calendar. The entry still identifies River Chapter as the organiser. This is the same workshop that appeared on the Chapter calendar earlier. There is one event being shown in more than one place. One event page and one organising Chapter Open the calendar entry to reach the original event page, with its time, venue, description, and registration information where tickets are available. This sample has no tickets on sale. Listing the event elsewhere keeps its owner, page, tickets, and history together. State and National are not maintaining separate versions of the workshop. The calendar shows the association’s time zone. The event page labels its own time zone. These are the same start time, displayed in different time zones. Chapter events, with separate listing decisions Members and visitors can find a Chapter, read its news, and browse events in List or Calendar view. State and National staff make separate decisions about which Chapter events appear on their calendars. Each listing opens the original event page. The organising Chapter keeps responsibility for the event, its tickets, and its history.
