Abstract

Systems and methods for managing flexible events in an electronic calendar are disclosed. In embodiments, a computer-implemented method comprises: determining, by a computing device, that an electronic calendar event is a flexible event based on recording data of the electronic calendar event indicating that a recording of the electronic calendar event may be available; determining, by the computing device, an end date by which the electronic calendar event must be completed based on the scheduling data; and displaying, by the computing device, an electronic calendar with the electronic calendar event to a user.
