FAQ's on Changing the Meeting Date or Time
Can I change the date/time if we missed the meeting date and it is in the past?
You can change the date or time until the minutes are confirmed.
Can I change the date/time before I create the Agenda? Yes. Please follow the steps above. When you are ready, you can create your agenda. If you haven’t sent out the meeting notice yet, you only need to update the meeting time in BoardPro, and the correct time and date will be included when the notice is sent.
If I change the meeting date or time or remote link, will the attendees be automatically notified, and will their calendars be updated? No, the updated details will not be sent automatically. You need to issue another meeting notice with the updated details.
Use the Notice Tab to send a meeting notice with an updated calendar file. Recipients can manually download this and add it to their preferred calendar to reflect the updated details. When a new meeting notice is sent after rescheduling, it will only include the updated time and date. The agenda and board documents are not included automatically and need to be sent separately if required.

Send a reminder with a comment detailing the change or any other pertinent information in that email notice.
When your Board receives the new notice, their calendar:
Gmail will automatically be updated.
Outlook, you must "re-add" to your calendar to overwrite the old date/time.
Other email platforms may need to open the attached Calendar. ics file to update their calendars/ Additionally, attendees can log in to BoardPro and view the meeting homepage, where the updated link will be visible.
If I remove meeting attendees, will they be automatically notified, and will their calendars be updated?
No. Because any attendees you have removed no longer appear on your meeting page, they will not be notified when you send out an updated meeting notice, so you will need to let them know outside of BoardPro, e.g., through email.
