Add event To calendar

Display Calendar In Microsoft SharePoint. As you can see, it's showing us a daily view of the current month. So, let's say I want to add a new event to this calendar. You want this event to be dated to the 2nd of July. To add an event you will double click the day that you want. To put this event on, I will double-click this date, and it will open a new form. So here we see a new form, and we can enter some information about this event. Give this event a name, and here we can put the location where the event will take place here. We can select the start time and Date to put 10 am to 12 pm here. Put a description, and here you can select the category which the event falls under.


Now, this drop down menu gives us some predefined categories, but you can add your own value by checking this box. Typing in whatever category you want this event to be listed. As for now use the predefined categories and set this as a meeting. Here you can select whether or not this is an all-day event. If you select it as an all-day event SharePoint will mark it in the calendar for the entire day. You'll notice that now we have set it as an all-day, the time options have disappeared from here. Because it's an all-day event, we don't need to specify when it starts and when it ends within the day.

There should be no more meetings on this schedule. You can see where it's added a new event for every Friday of July.
