>type=note
> **Note**: The difference between the **New Recurring Appointment** and the **New Recurring Event** options is that for the **New Recurring Event** option, the **Duration** item is set to **1 day** and the **Start** and **End** items are set to **12:00 am (00:00)**.

### Appointment time

The properties in the **Appointment time** group, allow you to set the start time, end time, and duration of the appointment.

### Recurrence pattern

The **Recurrence pattern** group settings change depending on whether the appointment recurs **Daily**, **Weekly**, **Monthly**, or **Yearly**.

| Setting | Description |
| ------- | ----------- |
| **Daily** | The **Daily** settings allow you to repeat an appointment every specified number of days or only on working days. ![](https://cdn.mescius.io/document-site-files/images/675b9aff-7616-4324-81ac-58e410fb9531/images/recurrence-daily.png) For example, setting the appointment to **Every 2 day(s)** will make the appointment appear every other day. Setting the appointment to **Every weekday** will make the appointment appear only Monday through Friday, by default. You can change which days are set as week days in the **Calendar Settings** dialog in the [C1Schedule Smart Designer](/componentone/docs/win/online-schedule/concepts/scheduer-views/designtimesupport/schedulerforwinforms5/c1schedulesmartdesig). |
| **Weekly** | The **Weekly** settings allow you to repeat the appointment on every specified week on specified days. ![](https://cdn.mescius.io/document-site-files/images/675b9aff-7616-4324-81ac-58e410fb9531/images/recurrence-weekly.png) For example, setting the appointment to **Recur every 2 week(s) on** and selecting **Tuesday** and **Thursday** will repeat the appointment every other week on Tuesdays and Thursdays. |
| **Monthly** | The **Monthly** settings allow you to repeat an appointment on every specified date at a specified interval of months or on a specified day and week of the month at a specified interval of months. ![](https://cdn.mescius.io/document-site-files/images/675b9aff-7616-4324-81ac-58e410fb9531/images/recurrence-monthly.png) For example, setting the appointment to **Day 8 of every 2 month(s)** will make the appointment appear on the 8th of every other month. Setting the appointment to **The 3 Monday of every 2 month(s)** will make the appointment appear on the 3rd Monday of every other month. |
| **Yearly** | The **Yearly** setting allows you to repeat an appointment on a specified date or a specified day and week of a specified month. ![](https://cdn.mescius.io/document-site-files/images/675b9aff-7616-4324-81ac-58e410fb9531/images/recurrence-yearly.png) For example, setting the appointment to **Every February 2** will make the appointment appear on February 2nd every year. This setting is ideal for birthdays and anniversaries. Setting the appointment to **The 1 Friday of February** will make the appointment appear on the 1st Friday in February every year. |

### Range of recurrence

The **Range of recurrence** group allows you to set a time span for the recurrence. The **Start** drop-down represents the date that the recurrence will start from. There are three options to chose from for an end date:

* **No end date** will make the appointment recur indefinitely.
* **End after 0 occurrences** will make the appointment recur a specified number of times. For example, if an appointment repeated every day, setting **End after 25 occurrences** would allow the appointment to repeat every day 25 times.
* **End by** will make the appointment recur until that date.
