One button cancels a single date in the series, while the other button cancels all events in the series. This is shown in the pictures below for a desktop display (similar displays are formatted for a phone). The Cancel Event Immediately, Cancel [~date~] Immediately, or Cancel All Events Immediately button is clicked to start the event cancellation process.
After the appropriate cancel button is clicked. a dialog box appears. This box permits the following:
