To view and edit the additional calendar you created, click the name of the new. A tick will appear and you can then add, edit and delete meetings and appointments

shared persons name is displayed on the calendarIf someone wants to share a user generated calendar with you, this can only occur through an email invitation that you have to accept

When you open a user generated calendar that someone shares with you, their name will appear next to the name of the user generated calendar (e.g. Carole W. Barrow – Room 101)

Refer to the Calendars, appointments and meetings module and the Sharing calendars and calendar permissions module for more information on using and sharing your user generated calendar.

Note: The main limitation of using a user generated calendar is that you cannot set up a meeting and receive responses from this calendar. Meetings can only be used to block out time and used for shared reference.
