# rescheduleAppointment

mutation · in the family [Selling](/reference/selling/)

## What it does

Move an appointment to a new time — the old booking closes as rescheduled and a linked replacement is created in one step.

Reschedule a requested/confirmed Appointment in ONE transaction: the predecessor flips rescheduled (slot RELEASED — the RESBOOK rows delete) and the SUCCESSOR births requested with every other field copied verbatim + the bilateral linkage ids stamped. The successor's own confirm re-runs the capacity gate (never auto-confirmed). The new window re-runs the lead/advance create gates; a resource re-pick re-gates in-tenant + ACTIVE + same-LF. Requires the unrestricted capability + the predecessor's CURRENT revision (OCC).

## What happens

The replacement is born requested — confirm it to reserve the new slot (the capacity check runs then).

## Who may call it
