Appointments can be anything that are scheduled for a specific time period. It can be created on varied time range and each appointments are categorized based on this range. The Scheduler events can be categorized as,
Represents an appointment that is created for any specific time interval within a day.
The following example depicts how to define a normal event on the Scheduler, with event data being loaded from simple JSON data.

</style>Represents an appointment that is created for more than 24 hours, and usually displayed on the all-day row. Also, represents another type of appointment that is created for more than one day but less than 24 hours, and usually displayed appropriately on both the days.
For example, if an appointment is created for two days say from November 25, 2018 – 11.00 PM to November 26, 2018 2.00 AM but less than 24 hours time interval, then the appointment is split into two partitions and will be displayed on both the days.
Represents an appointment that is created for an entire day such as holiday events. It is usually displayed separately in an all-day row, a separate row for all-day appointments below the date header section. In Timeline views, the all-day appointments displays in the working space area, and no separate all-day row is present in that view.
To change normal appointment into all-day event, set
isAllDayfield to true.
You can make use of the CSS customization to prevent the display of all-day row appointments on the Scheduler UI.
<style>
.e-schedule .e-date-header-wrap .e-schedule-table thead {
display: none;
}
</style>Represents an appointment that is created for a certain time interval and occurring repeatedly on a daily, weekly, monthly or yearly basis at the same time interval based on the provided recurrence rule. Usually, the recurring events are indicated by a repeat marker added at the bottom-right position.
The following example depicts how to create a recurring event on Scheduler with the specific recurrence rule. In the following example, an event is made to repeat on daily mode and ends after 5 occurrences.

</style>A few instance of the recurrence series can be excluded on specific dates, by adding those exceptional dates to the recurrenceException field. These date values should be given in the ISO date time format with no hyphens(-) separating the date elements.
For example, 22nd February 2018 can be represented as 20180222. Also, the time part being represented in UTC format needs to add “Z” after the time portion with no space. “07:30:00 UTC” is therefore represented as “073000Z”.

</style>To dynamically edit a particular occurrence from an event series and display it on the initial load of Scheduler, the edited occurrence needs to be added as a new event to the dataSource collection, with an additional recurrenceID field defined to it. The recurrenceID field of edited occurrence usually maps the ID value of the parent event.
In this example, a recurring instance that displays on the date 30th Jan 2018 is edited with different timings. Therefore, this particular date is excluded from the parent recurring event that repeats from 28th January 2018 to 4th February 2018. This can be done by adding the recurrenceException field with the excluded date value on the parent event. Also, the edited occurrence event which is created as a new event should carry the recurrenceID field pointing to the parent event’s Id value.

</style>Events can be repeated on a daily, weekly, monthly or yearly basis based on the recurrence rule which accepts the string value. The following details should be assigned to the recurrenceRule property to generate the recurring instances.
There are four repeat types available namely,
The properties based on which the recurrence appointments are created with its respective time period are depicted in the following table. Also, the valid rule string can be referred from iCalendar specifications.
Refer iCalendar specifications for valid recurrence rule string.
| Property | Purpose | Example |
|---|---|---|
| FREQ | Maintains the repeat type (Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Yearly) value of the appointment. | FREQ=DAILY;INTERVAL=1 |
| INTERVAL | Maintains the interval value of the appointments. When you create the daily appointment at an interval of 2, the appointments are rendered on the days Monday, Wednesday and Friday (Creates an appointment on all days by leaving the interval of one day gap). | FREQ=DAILY;INTERVAL=2 |
| COUNT | It holds the appointment’s count value. When the COUNT value is 10, then 10 instances of appointments are created in the recurrence series. | FREQ=DAILY;INTERVAL=1;COUNT=10 |
| UNTIL | This property holds the end date value (in ISO format) denoting when the recurrence actually ends. | FREQ=DAILY;INTERVAL=1;UNTIL=20180530T041343Z; |
| BYDAY | It holds the day value(s), representing on which the appointments actually renders. Create the weekly appointment, and select the day(s) from the day options (Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday/Friday/Saturday/Sunday). When Monday is selected, the first two letters of the selected day “MO” is saved in the BYDAY property. When multiple days are selected, the values are separated by commas. | FREQ=WEEKLY;INTERVAL=1;BYDAY=MO,WE;COUNT=10 |
| BYMONTHDAY | This property is used to store the date value of the Month, while creating the Month recurrence appointment. When you create a Monthly recurrence appointment for every 3rd day of the month, then BYMONTHDAY holds the value 3 and creates the appointment on 3rd day of every month. | FREQ=MONTHLY;BYMONTHDAY=3;INTERVAL=1;COUNT=10 |
| BYMONTH | This property is used to store the index value of the selected Month while creating the yearly appointments. When you create the yearly appointment on June month, the index value of June month 6 will get stored in the BYMONTH field. The appointment is created on every 6th month of a year. | FREQ=YEARLY;BYMONTHDAY=16;BYMONTH=6;INTERVAL=1;COUNT=10 |
| BYSETPOS | This property is used to store the index value of the week. When you create the monthly appointment in second week of a month, the index value of the second week (2) is stored in BYSETPOS. | FREQ=MONTHLY;BYDAY=MO;BYSETPOS=2;COUNT=10 |
The default recurrence related validation has been included for recurrence appointments similar to the one available in Outlook. The validation usually occurs during the recurrence appointment creation, editing, drag and drop or resizing of the recurrence appointments and also if any single occurrence changes.
| Description | Example |
|---|---|
| Daily recurring event that never ends | FREQ=DAILY;INTERVAL=1 |
| Daily recurring event that ends after 5 occurrences | FREQ=DAILY;INTERVAL=1;COUNT=5 |
| Daily recurring event that ends exactly on 12/12/2018 | FREQ=DAILY;INTERVAL=1;UNTIL=20181212T041343Z |
| Daily event that recurs on alternative days and repeats for 10 occurrences | FREQ=DAILY;INTERVAL=2;COUNT=10 |
| Description | Example |
|---|---|
| Weekly recurring event that repeats on every Monday, Wednesday and Friday and never ends | FREQ=WEEKLY;INTERVAL=1;BYDAY=MO,WE,FR |
| Repeats every week Thursday and ends after 10 occurrences | FREQ=WEEKLY;INTERVAL=1;BYDAY=TH; COUNT=10 |
| Repeats every week Monday and ends on 12/12/2018 | FREQ=WEEKLY;INTERVAL=1;BYDAY=MO; UNTIL=20181212T041343Z |
| Repeats on Monday, Wednesday and Friday of alternative weeks and ends after 10 occurrences | FREQ=WEEKLY;INTERVAL=2;BYDAY=MO,WE,FR;COUNT=10 |
| Description | Example |
|---|---|

The built-in validation support has been added by default for recurring appointments during its creation, edit, drag and drop or resize action. The following are the possible validation alerts that displays on Scheduler while creating or editing the recurring events.
| Validation messages | Description |
|---|---|
| The recurrence pattern is not valid. | This alert will raise, when the selected recurrence rule value is not a valid one. For example, when you try to select the end date value (using Until option) for a recurring event, which occurs before the start date, an alert will popup out saying that the chosen pattern is invalid. |
| The changes made to specific instances of this series will be cancelled and those events will match the series again. | This alert will raise, when you try to edit the whole series, whose occurrence might have been already edited. For example, If there are five occurrences and one of the occurrence is already edited. Now, when you try to edit the entire series, you will get this validation alert. |
| The duration of the event must be shorter than how frequently it occurs. Shorten the duration, or change the recurrence pattern in the recurrence event editor. | This validation will occur, if the event duration is longer than the selected frequency. For example, if you create a recurring appointment with two days duration in Daily frequency with no intervals set to it, you may get this alert. |
| Some months have fewer than the selected date. For these months, the occurrence will fall on the last date of the month. | When you try to create a recurring appointment on 31st of every month, where few months won’t have 31 days and in this scenario, you will get this alert. |
| Two occurrences of the same event cannot occur on the same day. | This validation will occur, when you try to edit or move any single occurrence to some other date, where another occurrence of the same event is already present. |
The Scheduler dataSource usually holds the event instances, where each of the instance includes a collection of appropriate fields. It is mandatory to map these fields with the equivalent fields of database, when remote data is bound to it. When the local JSON data is bound, then the field names defined within the instances needs to be mapped with the scheduler event fields correctly.
To create an event on Scheduler, it is enough to define the
startTimeandendTimefields. In case, if remote data is bound to Scheduler, thenidfield becomes mandatory to process the CRUD actions on appropriate events.
The built-in fields available on Scheduler event object are as follows.
| Field name | Description |
|---|---|
| id | The id field needs to be defined as mandatory, when the Scheduler is bound to remote data and it is optional, if the same is bound with JSON data. This field usually assigns a unique ID value to each of the events. |
| subject | The subject field is optional, and usually assigns the summary text to each of the events. |
| startTime | The startTime field defines the start time of an event and it is mandatory to provide it for any of the valid event objects. |
| endTime | The endTime field defines the end time of an event and it is mandatory to provide the end time for any of the valid event objects. |
| startTimezone | It maps the startTimezone field from the dataSource and usually accepts the valid IANA timezone names. It is assumed that the value provided for this field is taken into consideration while processing the startTime field. When this field is not mapped with any timezone names, then the events will be processed based on the timezone assigned to the Scheduler. |
| endTimezone | It maps the endTimezone field from the dataSource and usually accepts the valid IANA timezone names. It is assumed that the value provided for this field is taken into consideration while processing the endTime field. When this field is not mapped with any timezone names, then the events will be processed based on the timezone assigned to the Scheduler. |
| location | It maps the location field from the dataSource and the location text value will be displayed over the events. |
| description | It maps the description field from the dataSource and denotes the event description which is optional. |
| isAllDay | The isAllDay field is mapped from the dataSource and is used to denote whether an event is created for an entire day or for specific time alone. Usually, an event with isAllDay field set to true will be considered as an all-day event. |
| recurrenceID | It maps the recurrenceID field from dataSource and usually holds the ID value of the parent recurrence event. This field is applicable only for the edited occurrence events. |
| recurrenceRule | It maps the recurrenceRule field from dataSource and holds the recurrence rule value in a string format. Also, it uniquely identifies whether the event belongs to a recurring type or normal ones. |
| recurrenceException | It maps the recurrenceException field from dataSource and is used to hold the collection of exception dates, on which the recurring occurrences needs to be excluded. |
| isReadonly | It maps the isReadonly field from dataSource. It is mainly used to make specific appointments as readonly when set to true. |
| isBlock | It maps the isBlock field from dataSource. It is used to block the particular time ranges in the Scheduler and prevents the event creation on those time slots. |
When the fields of event instances has the default mapping name, it is not mandatory to map them manually. If a Scheduler’s dataSource holds the events collection with different field names, then it is necessary to map them with its equivalent field name within the eventSettings property.

</style>Appointments can be rescheduled to any time by dragging and dropping them onto the desired location. To work with drag and drop functionality, it is necessary to inject the module DragAndDrop and make sure that allowDragAndDrop is set to true on Scheduler. In mobile mode, you can drag and drop the events by tap holding an event and dropping them on to the desired location.
By default, drag and drop action is applicable on all Scheduler views, except Agenda and Month-Agenda view.

</style>When an event is dragged either to the left or right extreme edges of the Scheduler and kept hold for few seconds without dropping, the auto navigation of date ranges will be enabled allowing the Scheduler to navigate from current date range to back and forth respectively. This action is set to false by default and to enable it, you need to set navigation to true within the dragStart event.
By default, the navigation delay is set to 2000ms. The navigation delay decides how long the user needs to drag and hold the appointments at the extremities. You can also set your own delay value for letting the users to navigate based on it, using the timeDelay within the dragStart event.

</style>It is possible to drag and drop the unplanned items from any of the external source into the scheduler, by manually saving those dropped item as a new appointment data through addEvent method of Scheduler.
In this example, we have used the tree view control as an external source and the child nodes from the tree view component are dragged and dropped onto the Scheduler. Therefore, it is necessary to make use of the nodeDragStop event of the TreeView component, where we can form an event object and save it using the addEvent method.

</style>There are scenarios where you need to restrict the CRUD action on specific appointments alone based on certain conditions. In the following example, the events that has occurred on the past hours from the current date of the Scheduler are made as read-only and the CRUD actions has been prevented only on those appointments. This can be achieved by setting isReadonly field of read-only events to true.

isReadonlyfield is set totrue.
You can restrict the users to create and update more than one appointment on specific time slots. Also, you can disable the CRUD action on those time slots if it is already occupied, which can be achieved using Scheduler’s public method isSlotAvailable.

</style>Appointment selection can be done either through mouse or keyboard actions. The selected events in UI will have a box shadow effect around to differentiate it from other appointments.
| Action | Description |
|---|---|
| Mouse click or Single tap on appointments | Selects single appointment. |
| Ctrl + [Mouse click] or [Single tap] on appointments | Selects multiple appointments. |
With the options available to select multiple appointments, it is also possible to delete the multiple selected appointments simply by pressing the delete key. In case of deleting multiple selected occurrences of an event series, only those occurrences will be deleted and not the entire series.
It is possible to access the information about the event fields of an appointment element displayed on the Scheduler UI. This can be achieved by passing an appointment element as argument to the public method getEventDetails.
In the following example, the subject of the appointment clicked has been displayed.
