Creating An Entry for a Basic Meeting

To create a basic event entry:

Click the New Meeting icon in the Oracle Calendar Tool bar or use the keyboard shortcut [Control-Shift-M for Windows or Command-N for Macintosh]. You may also double-click on the desired time frame to open the New Meeting window.
In the New Meeting window, enter the name of the event into the Title field (i.e., annual review).
Enter the location of the event into the Location field (i.e., room number and building name).
Adjust the Start and End date and time fields appropriately.
Click OK.

You can select multiple time slots by dragging your mouse over the desired beginning to ending times.
The duration of an entry created by this method depends upon the time interval set by the user. For example, if the interval is set at 15 minutes and you create an entry using the type and enter method, the entry can be set for any duration that is a multiple of 15 minutes.
This method works best for blocking off time or one-time meetings with no invitees, using your default preferences for reminders, access, and importance levels.
Once an agenda entry has been created, it can be rescheduled by clicking once inside the entry, then dragging and dropping the entry on the desired time frame.
To delete an agenda entry, click within the border to highlight it, then press the [delete] key.
