Kindly explain why events for create & edit appointment, seems illogical in my scenario

[palak]

Dear telerik team,

Kindly check below problems i am facing due to events cycles you set for RadScheduleView.
1) I wanted to save newely created appointment, so i put my code in AppointmentSaving event. it works fine.
2) i wanted to edit appiontment , so i put my code in AppointmentEdited event. Now the problem comes into picture. Surprisingly, before firing AppointmentEdited event, AppointmentSaving is get fired everytime, so what is happening here, code in AppointmentSaving is also executing, then after AppiontmentEdited code executing. So one appointment is edited, and another appointment is created separately.

There were AppointmentAdded event in RadScheduler, so there were working everything fine, but now in RadScheduleView , due to new evens and event cycles, i am facing this problem.

kindly check below code, and respond.

private void SchedulerView_AppointmentEdited(object sender, AppointmentEditedEventArgs e)
        {
            busyIndicator.IsBusy = true;

            ResourceAppointment editedAppointment = e.Appointment as ResourceAppointment;
            SP.ListItem listItem = _ResourceAppointment.GetItemById(editedAppointment.AppointmentId);
            listItem["Title"] = editedAppointment.Subject.ToString();
            listItem["EventDate"] = Convert.ToDateTime(editedAppointment.Start).ToLocalTime();
            listItem["EndDate"] = Convert.ToDateTime(editedAppointment.End).ToLocalTime();
            listItem["Description"] = editedAppointment.Body.ToString();
            listItem.FieldValues["Rooms"] = editedAppointment.Resources[0].ResourceName.ToString();
            listItem.FieldValues["Resources"] = editedAppointment.Resources[0].ResourceName.ToString();

            listItem.Update();

            _Context.Load(_ResourceAppointment, list => list.Title);
            _Context.ExecuteQueryAsync(OnEditItemToListSucceeded, OnEditItemToListFailed);
        }
               private void SchedulerView_AppointmentSaving(object sender, AppointmentSavingEventArgs e)
        {
            busyIndicator.IsBusy = true;
            ResourceAppointment newAppointment = e.Appointment as ResourceAppointment;
            SP.ListItem listItem = _ResourceAppointment.AddItem(new ListItemCreationInformation());
            listItem["Title"] = newAppointment.Subject.ToString();
            listItem["EventDate"] = Convert.ToDateTime(newAppointment.Start).ToLocalTime();
            listItem["EndDate"] = Convert.ToDateTime(newAppointment.End).ToLocalTime();
            listItem["Description"] = newAppointment.Body.ToString();
            listItem.FieldValues["Rooms"] = newAppointment.Resources[0].ResourceName.ToString();
            listItem.FieldValues["Resources"] = newAppointment.Resources[0].ResourceName.ToString();
            listItem.Update();
            _Context.Load(_ResourceAppointment, list => list.Title);
            _Context.ExecuteQueryAsync(OnSaveItemToListSucceeded, OnSaveItemToListFailed);
        }

thanks & regards

Hi Palak,

I'm pasting the reply from the support ticket regarding the same issue:

In RadScheduleView you can use AppointmentCreated event which is fired after AppointmentSaving in order to save the new appointment. More information about RadScheduleView events can be found here.
Also you can check this help article which explains the differences between RadScheduler and RadScheduleView.

AppointmentCreated event got a property lik e.createdappointment to reference new appointment which i missed it before.
