Between 21 June and 15 August, a fireworks company may fire three shows on the same weekend, with two crews, one truck and deliveries at fixed times. Double-booking is the classic nightmare: you say yes to a festival committee on the phone, forget that the other pyrotechnician already took a wedding the same evening 90 km away, and only notice once both contracts are signed. The paper calendar in the workshop and the diary on the phone do not talk to each other.
PyroDesk's planning shows the season in a calendar view, with confirmed shows, their venues and their crews. Only confirmed files appear, so an option is never mistaken for a real show. Sync with Apple Calendar and Google Calendar copies the shows into the diary you already check on your phone, including your pyrotechnicians' shows. A date clash is visible the moment you place a new file, before the quote is even sent.
A Wednesday in June, a festival committee calls for a show on Saturday 19 July. You open the planning on the tablet: that Saturday, one crew is already on a wedding 20 km away, the other is firing a postponed national-day show. You suggest Friday 18, still free; the committee agrees. The file goes to confirmed the next day, the date appears in the iPhone calendars of the two pyrotechnicians involved, and the truck is booked for the right day.
