# 5.3. Recurrence Tab - (Noch nicht übersetzt)

Appointment Time

  In this area, you can edit an appointment's start and end time. Changes made in these areas will be reflected on the `General` tab, and vice versa. See General Tab.

Recurrence Rule

  This appears to be a complex section, but it is really rather simple. Choose the repetition period by clicking the `Daily, Weekly, Monthly,` or `Yearly` radio button on the left side of this area. When you choose a different period, the display to the right of the radio button will change to reflect the settings associated with that period. By default, an appointment will set itself up to repeat on a weekly basis.

  For `Daily`, simply choose how often to repeat. By default, it is every day (1), but you can change this to every other day (2), etc.

  For `Weekly`, change the period of weeks if you wish, and select which days of the week you want the appointment to occur on.

  For `Monthly`, you can either have the appointment occur on the same day of the month, or in a specific week on a specific day of the month. You need to choose this. By default, it assumes you want to repeat on the same calendar day of the month (like the 15th for instance). You can also adjust the period, so you can repeat monthly, tri-monthly, bi-yearly, etc.

  `Yearly` is similar to `Monthly`. You need to choose whether or not you are indicating a calendar day of the year (i.e., the 250th day of the year), or this day of the month in a particular month of the year. By default, KOrganizer assumes you mean the actual day of the year. You can adjust the period to reflect events that occur bi-annually, every four years, and so on.

Recurrence Range

  By default, appoints which repeat will do so forever; there is no ``end'' to the repetition. This may or may not be desirable, so you are provided with two ways of terminating the repetition: either by giving an ending date, or by specifying a total number of recurrences. In this area, you can choose the method that is suitable for this appointment.

Exceptions

  You may have a very nice recurrence rule set up, but realize that there are a few exceptions. If you set up your college class schedule for instance, you may want to make exceptions for holidays and the like. In this area, you can add, change, and delete dates from the list of exceptions (i.e. times when even if the recurrence rule matches, the event will not be scheduled). Pick a date with the date selector, and press `Add` to include it. For removing dates, hilight them in the box on the right side, and then click `Delete`.
