Changing an appointment

You may change all properties of an appointment if you are the creator or manager of the ap­pointment:

•      Select   Change  and click on the option requested or

•      select   Change    Appointment  to change all properties of an appointment.

•      If the appointment has participants associated, BSCW will help you to inform these par­ticipants by email about your modifications and to ask them again to confirm or decline their participation.

When you change date and/or time of an appointment with participants, you should set the status to ‘tentative’ since it has to be decided again who will attend and who will not.

When you change attributes of an appointment that belongs to a series of recurrent appoint­ments, the changes only concern the individual appointment, the other appointments of the series remain as they are.

If you want to change the attributes of a whole series of appointments (including the recur­rence rules), you proceed as follows:

•      Select   Change    Series  in the action menu of an arbitrary appointment of the series.

•      Change any attributes in the tabbed action form and confirm with [OK]. Note that your changes concern all appointments of the series unless an attribute has been changed individually for a certain appointment. Further, changes of date only concern the first appointment of the series, changes of time concern all appointments of the se­ries with the exception of appointments that were generated by recurrence rules of the type ‘On a Single Date’.
