</aside>
What is a read-only dashboard? This is an example of a page that is read only, meaning new entries aren’t intended to be added here. It is for visual compartmentalization. However, you can check **tasks as completed in this view via a done checkbox and move cards in the pipeline.
Where are tasks added? In the original calendar database described below.

</aside>
The original calendar database is located at the bottom left hand corner.
The action formula above is key to separating all three views in the Notion dashboard. All you need is a date property named “Deadline”.
if(prop("Done"), "☆ Done", if(formatDate(prop("Deadline"), "MDYYYY") == formatDate(now(), "MDYYYY"), "★ Today", if(formatDate(now(), "W") == formatDate(prop("Deadline"), "W") and prop("Deadline") > now(), "→ This " + formatDate(prop("Deadline"), "dddd"), if(prop("Deadline") < now(), "⚠︎ Overdue", if(toNumber(formatDate(now(), "W")) + 1 == toNumber(formatDate(prop("Deadline"), "W")), "↗ Next " + formatDate(prop("Deadline"), "dddd"), "↘︎ Later")))))

</aside>
This is a list view grouped by the action formula. This list will translate all the results from the above formula into toggles. All entries that correspond to each result will hide in the toggles. This view only shows results for next week or later.
...
No need for a filter here. The group menu has options for results you want to show or hide. To group a database view, navigate to the database menu. To move results in the list, change sort to manual.
