Setting up a class repetition

The setting field, which was mentioned just above in paragraph 6. allows you to set up the repetition of one class for different parameters.

To set up, specify the interval unit you need (hour, day, week, month) and its length. After, specify the date and time until which the repetitions will be affixed.


Also in the settings for repetition by week, you can specify certain days of the week for repeats in the interval.


Repetitions are setting up to end date and time INCLUDED.

 

Examples

Repetition by the hour:

I am creating an appointment for 8 am, and I want this appointment to repeat every 2 hours until the end of my working day at 6 pm.

To do this, in the "Class repetition" section, I choose the repetition every 2 hours, and in the end date, I choose the day for which the appointment was made, at 5 pm. Classes are repetition until the end date and time inclusive, so the end time of the repetitions is set at 5 pm.

Repetition by day:

I am creating an appointment for Monday at 9 am and I want this appointment to repeat every three days for two weeks.


To do this, in the сlass repetition, I choose to repeat every 3 days, on the end date I put the Sunday of the following week at 9 am.

Repetition by week:

I am creating an appointment at the beginning of the month and I want it to repeat itself until the end of the month, every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday.


To do this, in the "Class repetition" section, I choose to repeat every 1 week, and on the days of the week, I choose Monday, Wednesday and Saturday. Then, on the end date, I choose the last day of the month.

Repetition by month:

Deleting and editing repetitions

If an appointment is the beginning or part of repetitions, then when deleting or editing it, you can select "Current and subsequent", then the action will extend to all subsequent appointments.

After appointments editing, they will become a separate repetition group, which will no longer be affected by editing or deleting the group they were in before.
