Scheduling Events

The Calendar module provides a simple way to schedule Events - independently or within an Activity.

The exact date and time can be set,
Case(s), participants, and resources can be assigned, and
repeat options are available.

User privileges necessary for access to the Calendar module are SRP (Scheduling and Resource Planner), SRP (full control), and Admin.

Scheduling displayed as paled indicates that the operating user has limited privileges and, thus, no access to that specific scheduling.
When hovering over any such Event, a warning message appears about No access.

Timeslot structure can only be set on the Activity Scheduler page via Advanced Scheduling. The Advanced Scheduling link directing to it appears in the top right corner of the Edit Event pop-up window once an Activity is assigned to the Case in the corresponding drop-down.

Consequently, Events with timeslots scheduled can only be edited in Advanced Scheduling, thus appearing pale even for users with the necessary privilege(s).

Privileges for accessing Calendar

The necessary privileges to access the module are SRP or SRP (full control)l

SRP (Scheduling and Resource Planner)

Users with this privilege can:

schedule Events in the Calendar module, and assign such Events to a running activity, thereby gaining access to the Advanced Scheduling function of that activity
access, edit, or delete Events that have not been assigned to any activity
print or send calendar views (Daily/ Weekly/ Monthly) in email

IMPORTANT: SRP users can only assign Activities that have been shared with them (Read and Write access), and if they are members of the Faculty group assigned to the activity.
Events scheduled by an SRP user must be approved by an SRP (full control) user or an Admin.

Also, any modification made to events by an SRP user with respect to time, repetition, activity, or room settings has to be (re-)approved by a user with Admin or SRP (full control) privileges.

SRP (full control)

A user with full control privilege has access to:

schedule Events in the Calendar module, and assign such Events to any running Activity (independent of sharing), thereby gaining access to the Advanced Scheduling function of the scheduled Activity
access, edit, or delete any Event (independently of the Share settings of the Activity)
print or send calendar views (Daily/ Weekly/ Monthly) in email

Events scheduled by an SRP full control user are approved by default, and the user can approve Events scheduled by an SRP user.
