Calendar Event Management

This process details how a user can navigate the calendar interface as a contributor. Contributors have the ability to create and manage events, selecting various display modes, and can choose between creating an event from scratch or using information from an existing Outlook meeting. This guide covers the essential steps required to successfully create, customize, and manage events in the system.

Step 1

Begin by accessing the calendar web part in user mode as a contributor. Contributors have the capability to create events, while readers have a more limited, viewing-only access.

Step 2

As a contributor, you can create events and select the appropriate view or display mode for users. When creating an event, you can start from scratch or use an existing Outlook meeting. Input the event title, date, and location. Additionally, specify whether the event will be held remotely or in a hybrid format.

Step 3

Choose the appropriate department and category for the event. Enter a detailed description, and you have the option to add photos, documents, related images, and related events. Once the calendar is created, the display mode, such as carousel, will showcase the event title, date, and location.

Step 4

The display will also show a description and the presence mode. Users can view all event details and have the option to register online or on-site. Typically, users can register and then proceed to add the event to their personal calendars.

Step 5

After registration, users can add the event to their calendar. The 'Register' button will be deactivated once registration is complete, indicating that the process is finalized.
