How to use Oracle Calendar: Opening an Agenda (or Group View) as a Designate

 

Once you have been given designate rights to a calendar, you will be able to manage that calendar. These instructions apply to event calendars, resources, or other people's calendars...anything for which you've been made a designate.

Note: To work with resources and event calendars, you must open them as a designate.

  1. You will be presented with the Act as Designate dialog box.

Opening a group view as a designate

This will open a group view with the calendar for which you're a designate, and any other calendars you choose. (This can be very useful if you're using the event calendar to schedule employees or their vacations.)

 
  1. Sign-in to GUCalendar using your NetID and password, then click on File.

 

  1. In the submenu that comes up, click on Group View, then click on Open as Designate
 
  1. You will be presented with the Act as Designate dialog box.
 
  1. Double-click the calendar you want to work with (you will only be offered those calendars for which you have designate access). 
 
  1. Type the name of the person or resource who's calendar you wish to view concurrently with your selected agenda.

 

  1. Click on OK button.

Note: If you don't know a person's (or resource's, or event calendar's) name, click the magnifying glass to open the Search window. After searching, highlight the desired user or resource and click on the OK button to return to the Open as Designate window.
