Remarks

Important

You are viewing documentation for the legacy WPF Scheduler control. If you’re starting a new project, we strongly recommend that you use a new control declared in the DevExpress.Xpf.Scheduling namespace. If you decide to upgrade an existing project in order to switch to the updated scheduler control, see the Migration Guidelines document.

The method employs the Appointment Factory (accessible with the AppointmentStorageBase.AppointmentFactory property) to create an appointment.

Use the CreateAppointment method to create an appointment of the specified type. This method also creates all the required custom fields and adds it to the appointment’s CustomFieldCollection, available via the PersistentObject.CustomFields property. To add custom fields to the appointment manually use the PersistentObjectStorage<T>.CreateCustomFields method.

Subsequently use the AppointmentStorage.Add method to add a newly created appointment to the storage.
