Cannot change From in meeting invite to send as boss

Person A is responsible for setting up meetings for Boss. Person A has Full Access permission to the boss' mailbox. When creating a new meeting request in Outlook, Person A clicks on the boss' calendar under the Shared Calendars group and chooses New Meeting. Outlook shows the From line with Person A's email address. The From button is visible but disable. We can't click that to change to the boss' email address.

 

The workaround so far has been to simply send meeting invites to include the boss and others but we need to have Person A not be part of the meetings at all. I've looked at this link. We're following these steps but the From field still shows Person A's email address. What can we do to let Person A schedule meetings for her boss without including herself?

 

 The From field in a meeting request does not list all accounts in Microsoft Outlook

 

Outlook version is 16.0.13127.20566 (64-bit) on Win 10 (10.0.19042)

  • Cant tell really using phone, but looks ok. Usually the SharingPermissionFlags are missing. What happens when using Outlook on the web? Have you created a new Outlook profile?

      Thank you Christian. In this case the delegate has Full Access, Send As, and Send on Behalf of. In Powershell it looks like:

      PS C:\> Get-MailboxPermission pglover

      Identity User AccessRights IsInherited Deny
      -------- ---- ------------ ----------- ----
      boss NT AUTHORITY\SELF {FullAccess, ReadPermission} False False
      boss delegate@org.org {FullAccess} False False

      FolderName User AccessRights SharingPermissionFlags
      ---------- ---- ------------ ----------------------
      Calendar Default {AvailabilityOnly}
      Calendar Delegate {Editor} Delegate
