Modifying the Opportunity Arrival Date

If necessary, users can change the arrival and departure date information for an event opportunity, or remove the arrival date information.

This task is a step in Adding Details to the Event Opportunity.

To modify the arrival date in an opportunity

1. Navigate to the Opportunities screen > Opportunity List view.
2. In the Opportunities list, query for and select the opportunity.
3. In the Opportunity form, click the calendar icon in the Arrival date field.
4. In the Enter/Change Arrival Date dialog box, select a new date, and then select a value in the Instructions field.

   The Instructions values are:

   • Update Dates. If the user modifies the arrival date and selects Update Dates, the dates of the room blocks and functions that are associated with the opportunity change accordingly.
   • Update Day Numbers. If the user modifies the arrival date and selects Update Day Numbers, the dates of the function and room block remain the same as the original. The value in the Day Number field for each function and room block record is modified to reflect the new relationship between the opportunity arrival date and the function or room block date.

     NOTE:  When the arrival date is modified, the default action is to Update Dates.
