    appear on the right and left
    sides of the calendar.
    Click Next Appointment or

    Create Appointments
    An appointment is any scheduled activity that takes place within a one-day period that doesn’t require
    reserving resources or inviting attendees. This could include setting aside time for research, a doctor’s
    appointment, or an important dinner with friends or colleagues.
    Create an Appointment
    While viewing the calendar,
    click the New Appointment
    button on the Home tab.
    A new appointment window
    opens, ready for you to fill in
    the appointment’s details.
    Enter the appointment
    information:
    • Subject
    • Location
    • Start and End date and time
    • Notes
    Click Save & Close.
    The new appointment is added to the
    calendar.

    appointments from other views, such
    as Mail, by clicking the New Items
    button on the Home tab and selecting
    Appointment.
    Shortcut: Press Ctrl + N to create a new
    appointment while viewing the
    calendar.

    the ribbon.
    A list of categories appears. If

    Edit Appointments
    If you realize after the fact that some information entered about an appointment is wrong or has changed,
    you can always edit it.
    Edit an Appointment
    To edit an appointment or event, open it in its own window.
    Double-click an Appointment.
    The appointment’s window
    opens, with the same detail
    fields that you have when
    creating a new one.
    Edit the appointment details.
    Click Save & Close.
    The appointment is updated.
    108 Midlands Tech

    In addition to opening an appointment and changing the date and time there, you can also quickly
    reschedule an appointment from the calendar window.
    Click and drag the appointment
    to a new day or time.
    The appointment is rescheduled.
    Tip: While viewing the calendar in
    month view, you can only drag an
    appointment to a new day, which will
    keep it at the same time. Clicking and
    dragging an appointment in the week
    view will let you change the day and
    the time together.
    Delete an Appointment

    Appointment Options
    Once an appointment has been created, there are many ways to edit how your event or appointment
    appears in the calendar. Adding a reminder or adjusting the priority settings make it easy to be prepared for
    that big interview, a friend’s birthday, or family dinner.
    Create an All-Day Event
    An all-day event is an appointment that lasts for a day or more, such as a conference, work anniversary, or
    vacation. It has no specific start or end time.
    From within an appointment
    window, check the All day
    event check box.
    Shortcut: You can create a new
    all-day event directly. Click the
    New Items button on the
    ribbon and select All Day
    Event.
    Click Save & Close.
    The appointment is saved as an all-day
    event.
    110 Midlands Tech
    Change Availability
    Adding free/busy information to your appointments helps people know when you are available. When you
    make an appointment, the schedule is automatically set as Busy unless it is an all-day event. You can change
    your status so that it correctly reflects your availability for those who can view your calendar.
    From within an appointment
    window, expand the Options
    group if necessary.
    Click the Show As list arrow on
    the Appointment tab.
    Select an option.
    • Free: Shows that you are
    available.
    • Working Elsewhere:

    working from another
    location.
    • Tentative: Shows that you
    have tentative plans and
    may not be available.
    • Busy: Indicates that you are
    busy and not available.
    • Out of Office: Shows that
    you are out of the office and
    are not available.
    Click Save & Close.

    availability.

    Set a Reminder
    By default, a reminder will appear 15 minutes before a scheduled appointment or meeting, and 18 hours
    before an all-day event. However, you can adjust when a reminder appears.
    From within an appointment
    window, expand the Options
    group if necessary.
    Click the Reminder list arrow
    on the Appointment tab.

    time before the appointment.
    Privacy
    You can make appointments private so that you appear busy to your colleagues, but they are unable to see
    the exact details, such as the subject, location, or meeting organizer.
    From within an appointment
    window, expand the Tags
    group if necessary.
    Click the Private button on the
    Appointment tab.
    Click Save & Close.
    The appointment is marked private,
    hiding the details from others. To make
    an appointment or meeting public
    again, click the Private button again.
    112 Midlands Tech

    Schedule Meetings
    Organizing meetings can be difficult when dealing with many different schedules. Using Outlook, you can
    check invitee schedules before picking a meeting time. That way, you can make the meeting during a time
    that will work for everyone. You can also track responses to your meeting request to ensure that your most
    important invitees will be in attendance.

    Respond to Invitations
    Staying on top of your own invitations is another way your Calendar works to make life easier. There are a
    few different ways to respond to invitations in Outlook, ensuring your response will be received in a timely
    and professional manner.
    Respond from an Email
    Whenever someone sends you a meeting request, you receive an email that has a special meeting request
    icon.
    Select a meeting request in
    your inbox.
    Once the meeting is selected,
    you will see response buttons
    appear in the Reading Pane.
    Click Accept, Tentative, or
    Decline.
    • Accept: Accept the meeting
    request.
    • Tentative: Inform the
    meeting coordinator that
    you might be able to attend
    the meeting but can’t yet
    confirm.
    • Decline: Decline the
    meeting request.
    For each response, you have
    the option to attach a personal
    message to your RSVP, or
    simply respond to the meeting
    invite without sending any
    comments to the meeting
    organizer.
    Select an RSVP option.
    Depending on how you respond, a
    reply is sent, and the event will appear
    on your calendar.
    © 2019 CustomGuide
    123
    Respond from the Calendar
    You can also respond to a meeting request directly from the calendar.
    While viewing the calendar,
    select the meeting you need to
    respond to.
    Any appointments you’ve been
    invited to but haven’t yet
    responded to will appear in
    your calendar, but in a washedout color.
    Click the Accept button,
    Tentative button, or Decline
    button on the Meeting Series
    tab.
    You also have a choice of how
    you’d like to RSVP to the
    invitation.
    Select a response method.
    Depending on the option you chose, a
    message is sent to the meeting
    organizer and the meeting remains in
    your calendar, no longer in a washedout color.
    124 Midlands Tech
    Add Contacts
    Having a contact list isn’t any good if you don’t add new contacts as you connect with more people. If you
    have someone’s information handy, you can easily create a new contact for them.
    Add a New Contact
    You can add a new contact in Outlook’s People hub.
    Click the People button on the
    Navigation Bar.
    The People hub appears in

    appears. Choose to either add a new
    record or update the existing contact’s
    record.
