How to Edit Fields For Appointment Details

[Gwen Struve]

I am setting up reoccurring "blank" appointments for the x amount of time
slots we have available every day for trucks to come in. When the actual
appointment is made, I fill in the details for that truck on the appointment
details card.

But I need to be able to sort the appointments at the end of the month by
two categories - whether or not the truck was late, and what carrier it is.
Is there a way to add two fields to the screen for this?

Originally I was planning on making them categories and just assigning the
category to the appointment as needed, but that wont work because it is a
reoccurring appointment and the categories will be different for the
occurrance.

Any other ideas how I can use outlook for scheduling but still be able to
sort by two fields?

I highly recommend you don't use recurring appointments when you need to
track different info with each recurrence Make them using excel and import
to make it easier.
