Creating Recurring Calendar Activities

You might find that you want to schedule recurring activities, such as meetings. Instead of creating a new meeting every time a recurring meeting occurs, you can create one activity and set the activity to repeat at specific times to create a series of meetings.

Note:

When you modify a recurring meeting and click Save All, your changes are applied to the current meeting and to every future meeting in the series. However, your changes are not applied every previous meeting in the series.

To create a recurring calendar activity

Navigate to the Calendar screen.
In the daily, weekly, or monthly calendar format, click the plus (+) icon.

The Calendar Detail form appears.

Some fields are described in the following table.
