You can schedule events to display on your Calendar personal calendar, and, if you are a member of any groups, you can schedule events to display on group calendars so that everyone in a group can view them. If you accept the invitation to a group event, the event displays on your personal calendar as well as the group calendar. You can schedule an event for a specific time period or as an event that occurs for an entire day. For more information, see Scheduling All Day Events.

To Schedule an Event

  1. Log in to your Calendar account.
  2. From the Go to list, select the calendar you want to use for scheduling the event. The Go to list is in the menu bar on the right side of the window.
