Unit planning without dates

I so appreciate your letting me try out CC this year in exchange for feedback on why I stopped using it previously. I've been giving it a second chance and I do like a lot about it - but I finally went ahead and paid for Plabook.com again to use as well because the inability to dump lots of info about a unit before actually putting it into a calendar makes my life harder when I plan. I'd like to build up units and then assign dates to them. Please feel free to contact me if you need more info!
