In Global Navigation, click the Calendar link.

To add additional calendar(s) to your Canvas calendar, click the checkbox next to the calendar [1] and click the Save Changes button [2].

Click any date on the calendar to add an event [1]. Or, click the arrows next to the month name to navigate to a different month [2] and select a date.

If you don't want to manually locate the date, you can click the Add icon [3].

Enter a title for the event [1].

Depending on how you added your event, the date may be populated for you. If not, enter a date in the date field [2].

The calendar times may also be populated for you in the From fields [3]. To edit, use the dropdown or enter the start and end time for your event. To create an all-day event, leave the From fields blank so there is no start and end time for your event.

In the Frequency drop-down menu, you can set recurring calendar events [4].

You can enter a location [5].

In the Calendar drop-down menu [6], select the account calendar [7].

In the Frequency drop-down menu [1], you can select from multiple recurring options, including no repeat, daily, weekly, monthly, annually, every weekday, or a custom frequency.

Notes: Each frequency selection has an occurrence default:

• daily = 365 (days in a year)
• weekly = 52 (weeks in a year)
• monthly = 12 (months in a year)
• annually = 5 (The event will occur for five years)
• every weekday = 52 * 5 (weeks in a year * weekdays)
• Additionally, users can have a maximum of 400 occurrences.

To add additional details to your event, click the More Options button [1]. You can use the Rich Content Editor to add a description or resource links and add an address location.

If you only want to create the event as a placeholder and add details later, click the Submit button [2]. You can edit your event at any time.
