      We are seeing the same thing. The Online Meeting button exists, but we always receive this message:

      Cannot Schedule Online Meeting
      You cannot schedule this online meeting because there might be issues with your sign in account. Make sure you are signed in to the same you use for Microsoft Outlook. If the problem continues, contact your System Administrator.

      We are signed it to the same account. Clicking on the meetings tab in Skype for Business pulls our meeting invites and offers join buttons. Clicking on a chat or call contact returns their Exchange / Office 365 contact details. Every bit of integration between the two works, except the ability to create a Skype meeting. Right now Mac users are forced to login to the Office 365 web interface to create Skype meetings.

        We ran into a similar issue - but found that the users' sign-in address for Skype for Business for Mac didn't match the authentication information for Outlook 2016.

         

        We had to change the Skype login to match the authentication   user@domain.com so both matched and were able to get it to work.  There are a lot of other posts indicating that the credentials MUST match between the two.
