I decided to Check the clear my db and recreate from scratch and use chrome inspector to check the schedule values. They are the same with what is in my Db, don't understand why whenever I want to edit a detached recurrence appointment, it sends added params and not update params. Find below another Json object from my Db and also the image of google inspector. I check the _currentAppointmentData property on the Schedule control and the contents are the same with what is in my Db.

On deeper investigation into the difference between the object sent to the Default Appointment window and that sent to the custom Appointment window. I noticed no difference in the object sent but where the difference was inside the Schedule saveAppointment method itself. I added some code to the actionComplete event
function onComplete(args) {
if (args.requestType === "dateNavigate" || args.requestType === "viewNavigate") {
onCreate();
}
if (args.requestType === "appointmentEdit") {
console.log(args.requestType);
console.log(args);
}
}
So I got out the object actually inside the saveAppointment() method of the Schedule Control and saw the differences as shown below.
1) Sample of Object passed with Id = 3 which is the Id of the Appointment. This is the Object created before saving and still remain the same after saving.
2) But the some properties of the Object changed while inside the Schedule Control saveAppointment() method. I noticed that the Id changed to 13 which is
the AppTaskId. More so, the currentAction is shown as "editOccurence" while that of the default appointment window showed "edit" The recurrenceRule seems to repeat the date also, though I don't think that has anything to do with the issue.
3) The Default Window gave the correct properties and nothing changed from the intended object. The Id remains the same and the recurrence rule seems Ok.
What could have been making the properties to change in the custom appointment window as shown above.
After digging deeper, I noticed that the recurrence value is changing from true to integer value of 1 in the save function. when populating the object, the value is true but thereafter the value somehow changes to integer 1. I checked it out for new Creation of Appointment, it value of recurrence false, stays the same. It doesn't change to any integer value.For Creation of New Appointment, the recurrence remained false, didn't change to any integer value. So what could causing this.
For Creation of New Appointed, the value of false for recurrence property remains the same, it doesn't change to any integer value.
By commenting out the schObj.saveAppointment(obj) and trying to get the actual properties of the object passed into the saveAppointment function, I realized that it was the saveAppointment function that is changing the values of the object since it is a reference object, the changed value is passed back.
