Hi,
Can someone explain me about regarding field in appointment?

Thank you mardukes.
It's a record to which the appointment pertains. The account, for instance. But the regardingobjectid is, in fact, pert' near relationships (lookups) to every entity out there -- a very unique feature that makes Activities special.
The other special thing about regarding is that it bubbles up. Assuming MS hasn't unplugged anything, say your appointment is regarding a quote and that quote has a contact as its customer and that contact is associated to an account, you will see that appointment among not just the quote associated activities, but the contact's and the account's, too.
Thank you for your reply
I want to know why the regarding field is used for?
For example,
The required field in appointment is used as sending invitation to the attendees but for what the regarding field is used?
Can you be more specific? What would you like to know?
This documentation explains the field types including the "Regarding" field: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/customer-engagement/customize/types-of-fields
