I would like to create the one appointment series which is repeated every weeks, but first week on Monday and second on Thursday and this two weeks are repeated regularly till the end. Is ti possible?
Hi Shuster,
In this situation, I suggest you create two bi-weekly recurring appointments.
1. Please set the recurrence patter for the first bi-weekly recurring appointment as following screenshot shown:
1.1 Check Weekly
1.2 Specify Recur every 2 week(s) on
1.3 Only check Monday (Only check Tuesday for the second recurring appointment)
1.4 The first recurring appointment will start at the first week. (the second one starts at the second week)
@Anibasi, I think the idea is that you create the meeting series for yourself, re-arrange everything to the dates you want, and then forward the meeting invitation to others; but I might be wrong.
ya this didn't work for me. I need to send multiple appointment invites to multiple people on different dates. basically "Appointment Series " is now here to be found for me :(
The copy and paste works well for appointments, but are not fit for meeting. For meetings, you can create a recurring meeting series firstly, and then modify each meeting occurrence as you need.
