Additional Information

Here are steps to duplicate, for instance, on iPhone device:
 
1. Set on a phone Calendar a test appointment in 3 weeks ahead time and then sync it.

2. The appointment shows correctly on a device & GroupWise Calendar.

3. Now move a date on a phone +2 weeks ahead present time. On iPhone go into Setting -> General -> Date & Time -> put Set Automatically in Off mode and next set a date ahead of +2 weeks.
