The General tab comprises several panels described below.

Title

This is where you enter the title of the event - as it will appear in the titlebar and in the events list:

Occurence

This field is used to indicate to the back-end system when to display the event on the portal.

An Occurence consists of a pair of time stamps (date and hour), the first one expressing the start of the period, the second one the end of the period.

In the example below, this London 2012 Olympics event has been visible on the NOP from 01/03/2012 at 00:01 to 12/09/2012 at 23:59.

Please check the Occurences section for more information.

Summary

This standard text area is where you type the Summary for your document. This text appears on the Portal when you mouse over the title of an event.

Description, Keywords and Display Period

These fields are general and behave no differently than in the other entities.
