Manager - Creating Recurring Events

Managers can create recurring Events with the following options:

       The ability to create a wider variety of Recurring Events – Events can still be set to recur on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. The new enhancement allows events to recur by day of the week (every Monday), every ‘x’ day (every 2^nd Tuesday) or on a specific date of the month (on the 11^th).

The ability to view Recurring Events on the Calendar - As with other Events, Recurring Events can be views on the Community Calendar.

For a Monthly Recurring Event:


 

In the Repeat Every fields as seen above, choose:

The monthly frequency (every month, every 2 months, etc)

Choose from the dropdown box whether the event is recurring on the date (each month on the 23^rd) or the day (the 4^th Thursday of each month).

Note: This dropdown will dynamically change based on the day you input in your start date field. In this example, the date selected is the 4th Thursday, so the dropdown presented that option.
