### Changing an appointment

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

• Select Change Properties to change the appointment. The action form has the same sections as the action form for creating an appointment.

• In the section ‘Participants’, BSCW will help you to inform the participants of the appointment 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 properties 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 Properties Series in the action menu of an arbitrary appointment of the series.

• Change any properties and confirm with [OK]. Note that your changes concern all appointments of the series unless a property 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’.
