Indicate whether to use the Book or Reschedule messages rather than the Create or Update messages. This option is only applicable when used with appointment, recurring appointment, or service activity records.NOTE: useSchedulingEngine property is not supported in Unified Interface. |

Note
When working with forms, and you call the formContext.data.save method, make sure that you also call the preventDefault to ensure that any default save operation is not triggered when a user saves the form.
