Thanks, I will review
My setup is as follows:
Exchange 2007, Outlook 2007(In Cached mode)
I have the following process setup
Under Resources Scheduling Options:
Automatically process meeting requests and cancellations - Checked
Disable Reminders - Checked
Maximum number of days - 180
Always decline if end date is beyond this limit - Checked
Limit meeting duration - checked
Maximum allowed minutes - 1440
Allow scheduling only during working hours - Unchecked
Allow Conflicts - Unchecked
Allow recurring meetings - Checked
Allow up to this number of individual conflicts: - 0
Allow up to this percentage of individual conflicts: - 0
FOR RESOURCE SCHEDULING PERMISSIONS, I have the following settings:
Specify users and groups which have permissions to schedule this resource by
sending a meeting request
*Select Users and Groups: (In this case I have about 10 users selected)
These users can submit a request for manual approval if the resource is
available:
* No one selected for this permission
These users can schedule automatically if the resource is available and can
submit a request for manual approval if the resource is unavailable:
* No one selected for this permission
For requests requiring approval:
Always forward to delegates - Checked
Always tentatively accept these requests - Unchecked
RESOURCE PRIVACY OPTIONS
Always add the organizer name to the meeting subject - Checked
Always remove the private flag on an accepted meeting
When declining meeting requests due to a conflicting meeting:
* Include detailed information about conflicting meetings in response -
Checked
* Include organizer's name in conflict information - Checked
Always delete the following when sent to this resource:
* E-mail messages - Checked
* Atachments from meeting requests - Checked
* Comments from meeting requests - Checked
* Subject of meeting requests - Unchecked
No response Message
From within the mailbox, I set the default permission for the calendar to
Reviewer
And I have one delegate per resource that gets forwarded the meeting
requests, and she has Editor rights on the calendar.
Does that help
