Daily Recurrence does not appear correctly on radscheduler

[imran syed]

Hello,

I am trying to create a daily appointment into rad scheduler by using code. As i want to achieve 2 possible scenarios 

a)  create a daily appointment that appears on the rad scheduler on every Monday till the end date of the appointment.

b)  create daily appointment that shows on the scheduler based on the time interval of day for example:- recurrence of appointment after 1,10,15,20,30,100 etc 

although i partially manage to complete the first scenario to recur appointment every monday but it showing only 3 recurrence in month instead of 4 times during the dates between 2/1/1010 and 3/1/2010.  this is my code which i am using to create the appointment can you tell me is i am doing something wrong... 

 DateTime startTime = new DateTime(2010, 2, 1, 9, 0, 0)

   // Creates a recurrence range, that specifies a limit of 4 occurrences for the appointment.

        RecurrenceRange range = new RecurrenceRange();

        range.Start = startTime;

        range.EventDuration = new TimeSpan(1, 0, 0);

        range.MaxOccurrences = 4;

        range.RecursUntil = DateTime.MaxValue;

      // Creates a recurrence rule to repeat the appointment every Monday.

        DailyRecurrenceRule rrule = new DailyRecurrenceRule(RecurrenceDay.Monday, range);

        

        Appointment recurringAppointments = new Appointment("1", Convert.ToDateTime("2/1/2010"), Convert.ToDateTime("3/15/2010"), "Recurring appointment", rrule.ToString(), null, RecurrenceState.Occurrence);

        recurringAppointments.RecurrenceRule = rrule.ToString();

        RadScheduler1.InsertAppointment(recurringAppointments);

        RadScheduler1.DataBind();

Also enclosing the screen shots that shows on 3 recurrence appointment in a month.

For the second scenario i am  doing everything the same just changing the daily recurrence rule  based on days such as 

 DailyRecurrenceRule rrule = new DailyRecurrenceRule(20, range);

 but if i have interval with more than 17 days its not showing recurring appointment... enclosing the second screenshot with filename: RecurrenceByDay for  your reference

Can you also please show me how to create a reference rule for weekly & monthly !

I look forward to hear from you.

Thanks,

Imran

Hello imran,

1. I tested your code, but I got 4 appointments as expected. Attached is a simple demo.

2. You can create recurring appointment which occurs at regulare intervals. For example:

//Create appoinment that occurs every 5 days for 4 occurrences
      DateTime startTime = new DateTime(2010, 2, 1, 9, 0, 0);
      RecurrenceRange range1 = new RecurrenceRange();
      range1.Start = startTime;
      range1.EventDuration = new TimeSpan(1, 0, 0);
      range1.MaxOccurrences = 4;
      range1.RecursUntil = DateTime.MaxValue;
      DailyRecurrenceRule rrule1 = new DailyRecurrenceRule(5, range1);
      Appointment recurringAppointment1 = new Appointment("2", startTime, startTime.AddHours(1), "occurs every 5th day", rrule1.ToString(), null, RecurrenceState.Occurrence);
      recurringAppointment1.RecurrenceRule = rrule1.ToString();
      RadScheduler1.InsertAppointment(recurringAppointment1);

Note, that irregular patterns such as 1,10,15,20,30,100 are not supported.

Hi,

   I am working with RadScheduler.For my case,I customize the Rad Scheduler for Events.
Created Event with Subject,Start Date ,EndDate Field.It works well .I have to incorporate Recurrence in the RadScheduler .
For the Recurrence ,I added RecurenceParent ID and Recurence Rule in the Event Table.

  And What are the thing to do .?If the Event does not have recurrence i saved the recurrence ParentID as zero.
But its not working .Please give me the following details.

1.What are the things to be saved in recurrence rule?
2.Is the Recurrence Parent id as Event ID or Shall i need to create child table for this.>

i maintained all are the things in the Event Table only .Please give me any procedure to incorporate recurrence .

Thanks in advance

Hello Prabha,

Please, review the Database structure and make sure you set the DataRecurrenceField and DataRecurrenceParentKeyField to the corresponding fields.
