Warning

WARNING

If you have already synced the Session/Event to Paradigm, converting a repeating Appointment into a single events event will create a whole new set of Session line lines in the Course Plan menu for the student to enrol, leaving the previously repeating appointment intact. To avoid duplicates, delete the sessions previously synced and convert the appointment into single events in Rapla before attempting to resync.
