# 5.1. Entering New Event

In this example, you'll enter an event. You need to arrange a meeting on February 12, 2001 regarding launch of your new Product. Your boss Joan Holden will be the event chairwoman owner, and you, Jack Smith, will be the event organizer. There'll be two more attendees (participants): Peter Krzinski and Kirsten Friese. Joan gave you the program of the meeting. The appointment will start at 12am and end at 1pm . The same appointment should be scheduled (recurred) each Monday.

1. Using the Date Navigator go to February 12, 2001.

2. Click on Actions->New Event

3. Enter suitable summary. It's important to choose the right brief description, because this is the only field that can be searched. We suggest that you enter "`Product launch event`".

4. Enter the detailed event program into the largest rectangle area. For the sake of this simple example, enter "`Introduction, The Plan, Conclusion`" on three separate lines.

5. Check the Recurring event checkbox.

6. Click on the Recurrence tab.

   | Most work has been done for you automatically. Korganizer defaults to weekly recurring. Also note that No ending date is chosen. This means that this event will be repeated each Monday (starting, of course, on Monday February 12, 2001) until the end of time (that is, until you delete it).

7. Since everything is all right here, click on the Attendees tab.

8. In the Attendees tab you should do the following:

   1. In Attendee Name field, enter `Jack Smith`.

   2. Choose Organizer as the role, and change the Need Action item to Accepted. Uncheck the Request Response checkbox.

   3. Click Add.

   4. In Attendee Name field, enter `Joan Holden`. In Email Address field, enter `jholden@thiscompany.com`.

   5. Choose Owner as the role.

   6. Click Add.

   7. In Attendee Name field, enter `Peter Krzinski`. In Email Address field, enter `pkrzinski@thiscompany.com`.

   8. Click Add.

   9. In Attendee Name field, enter `Kirsten Friese`. In Email Address field, enter `kfriese@thiscompany.com`.

   10. Click Add.

9. Click the Categories button.

10. Choose Appointment in the Avaliable Categories. Click the Add>> button. Then click the OK button.

11. You'll be back in the main event entry window. Review the event setup by clicking on the General, Attendees, and Recurrence tabs. If you are satisfied, click OK.

Congratulations, you've scheduled your first event!
