See other participants availability

When you have selected a list of participants, the system will show their calendar at the bottom of the screen to see if the meeting will conflict with existing planning:

Booking resources to your appointment

When creating or editing appointments it is also possible to book resources. To learn more about resources, please refer to this section.

Resources will be shown when creating the appointment and when a resource is selected, Microbizz will prompt the user, if the resource is already booked at the chosen date and time. This ensures that a resource is not double booked and lets the user choose another resource, or simply find another date where the resource is available.

Repetitive calendar appointments

It is possible to make a repetitive calendar appointment e.g. a meeting every Monday morning. Here you’ll need to specify in the Repeat field if it’s an ad-hoc appointment or repetitive e.g. Weekly. Then you’ll be asked to choose between additional info so that Microbizz can create the sequence of appointments.

Exchange integration

You can set up the calendar module with an Exchange integration, which will allow you to synchronize your organization's mailboxes with Microbizz. For more on this, please refer to /wiki/spaces/DEV/pages/9832647.
