# Delete Appointments

## Overview

Deleting Appointments in Rapla is possible and will not create any issues as long as the session is not yet synced to Paradigm. Refer to the warning message below for instances when you have already imported the event that you want to delete an appointment. This knowledge article will provide you with the steps on how to delete an event's appointment in Rapla.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**WARNING**:

If you have already synced to Paradigm the appointment that you want to delete in Rapla, the synced appointment will not automatically be deleted in Paradigm once you do a resync after the delete action in Rapla. If you want to get rid of the appointment/session, delete the sessions in Paradigm first before you delete the appointment in Rapla and do the resync.
{% endhint %}

## Workflow

There are two ways you can delete appointments of an event in Rapla. Choose between the two options below on how to delete appointments in an event: [Delete via the Edit option](#delete-via-the-edit-option) or [Delete via the Delete Appointment option](#delete-via-the-delete-appointment-option)

### Delete via the Edit option

1\. Right-click on the Paradigm Session where the appointment that you want to delete is under or directly on the Appointment Session that you want to delete and click the **Edit** option. This will open the Paradigm Session details.

* If you have selected the main Paradigm Session or Event and clicked the **Delete Appointment** option, the options to delete are the same as below except for the 2nd option series. The main Paradigm Session or Event will make the 1st Appointment as the series to be deleted.

| Delete Option                                                           | Description                                                                                                                                                                               |
| ----------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| <mark style="color:green;">**1**</mark>. **Event**                      | this will delete the entire Paradigm Session/Event and all the appointments under it                                                                                                      |
| <mark style="color:green;">**2**</mark>. **Series: \[Day and Time]**    | this is the suggested way to delete the whole series of the appointment. If you will choose this option, it will only delete the appointment selected but not the whole Paradigm Session. |
| <mark style="color:green;">**3**</mark>. **1x appointment on dd/mm/yy** | this will delete only the specified appointment date. If selected, the Paradigm Session/Event and all the other appointment dates will remain except for the one specified in the button. |

* If you are deleting a one-off event/appointment, you will only be prompted with these two delete buttons( <mark style="color:green;">**1**</mark> and <mark style="color:green;">**3**</mark> in the table above).
