Right-click a free appointment slot and select Add Reserved Appointment from the menu that appears.

 

The Add Reserved Appointment window appears.

 

Select a start and end date for the period of reserved appointment slots.

Indicate how often you wish the reserved appointments to recur. The example above shows that the appointments will recur every week. Other options include minutes, hours, days, months and years.

Click  A list of reserved appointments is displayed in the Appointment List section. If possible, reserved appointments are scheduled for the same time slot as the original, or at the next available time slot

To delete a specific appointment from the list of reserved appointments, select the appointment from the list and click  Note that you cannot select multiple appointments simultaneously.

Click to confirm your selections and close the window.
