Calendar entity messages and methods

 

Applies To: Dynamics CRM 2015

A calendar consists of a set of ordered rules that define time blocks of free/busy times for users, business units, and services, and for resources or resource groups. Examples of rules are working and nonworking hours, vacations, appointments, and weekly meetings. Calendars support recurring events and can be nested. In addition to time blocks, a calendar also specifies the capacity rules, as measured by the effort that is required for a specific resource and appointment type, and by the effort that is available per duration by a resource in the calendar for the resource. The schema name for this entity is Calendar. To view the entity metadata for your organization, install the Metadata Browser solution described in Browse the metadata for your organization. You can also view the metadata for an uncustomized organization in the Excel file called EntityMetadata.xlsx included in the top-level folder of the SDK download.
