The Meeting Planner: Free/Busy Views

 

When you make an appointment, you can choose Busy or Out of the Office. The Meeting Planner shows Busy as blue and Out of the Office as purple. 

1. In this view, the new appointment begins at the green line and ends at the red line. Look for conflicts. A conflict is any appointment listed at the same time as your proposed meeting.

2. If there is a conflict with your calendar, or with one of the people you have invited,  try using the AutoPick Next button to find the next time everyone’s is free.

3. When you have reviewed the appointment and scheduling options, Save and Close the appointment. Outlook will send everyone an email inviting them to this meeting.
