Many meetings, appointments, and events occur on a regular basis over a period of time. Instead of creating new calendar items for each occurrence, you can set the item as recurring. Microsoft Office Outlook Web Access will automatically schedule the item each time it is to occur.
You can schedule recurring appointments and meetings. You can set an existing calendar item as recurring. However, you can only modify meeting requests to recur if you created them.
- Compose a new appointment or meeting request, or open an item that currently appears on your schedule.
- On the toolbar, click Recurrence
.
- In the Recurrence pattern dialog box, under Appointment time, use the Start and End lists to select the start and end times of the recurring item.
- Under Recurrence pattern, choose how often the appointment or meeting will occur.
