There are several ways to set, edit or change the date and time of a meeting. This includes the start or end time for any meeting 


Note: These changes can only be made by the recording secretary.  


Scenario #1: After the meeting has been called to order, I need to change the date and/or time   


Scenario #2: Before a meeting is called to order, the date and/or time can be edited from the meetings page.


Scenario #3: Changing the date and/or time of a meeting from the Minutes in the Meeting Details/Attendance section (before it is called to order).


Scenario #4: The meeting has been closed and I need to change the date and/or time



Scenario #1:
