<Danger>
  Timesheet Calendars cannot be updated or deleted once they have been related to an
  Assignment record. If changes are needed once the Calendar is related to an
  Assignment, it is best to create a new Timesheet Calendar record. Deleting records is
  not recommended unless absolutely essential.
</Danger>

   button available on the top right side of the page. You can also double click within fields that need
   editing or just click on the pencil icon <InlineImage src="/images/icons/qrg-create-a-timesheet-calendar-inline-4-1.png" alt="Inline icon" /> that appears within fields when hovering with your
   cursor.
9. When complete, click on the **Save** button.
