Group Calendar in Outlook 2016
I have reproduced this exact same error in multiple different user accounts, in multiple different organizations. If you add a group calendar from the address book, in most cases (as far as I can tell, unless there are guest members of the group) it will display all of the *personal appointments* of every member of the group in the *group calendar*, shown as Busy with no other details. If you add it the other way, they don't show up.
This is a serious bug.
I absolutely agree. I just had to teach a set of end users how to use the calendar for their group that used a mixture of outlook on windows and mac and it was a nightmare. No consistency at all, have to look under folders and add the group as a favorite from there, then once that was done users could add/cancel appt. and could add meetings but could not cancel any meetings. Finally we found the little checkbox in advanced settings to not cache shared calendars and that fixed the issue, but its been a nightmare for this team to work in O365 Groups and they really want to just scrap it for a sharepoint shared calendar, but the mac users cant access those so they are stuck.... Friggin debacle all around.
