Calendar or schedule; a calendar that lists daily events and activities.

How it's used
Refers specifically to a tool for tracking appointments or tasks rather than a wall calendar for dates. While digital calendars are now the standard, the term is still used for both physical planners and phone apps. It carries a slightly more formal tone than just saying 日曆.

Common mistake
Avoid using this for a simple wall calendar that only shows dates and holidays, as that is usually just called 日曆. Use 行事曆 when the focus is on managing personal or work schedules.
