Bookings calendar not displaying availability
We have a personal bookings page set up with 4 meeting types, two public and two private. None are displaying any availability, except ONE of the private ones, despite checking custom settings and ensuring there are no availability clashes or all-day events in the calendar. The one private booking type that is showing appropriate availability has both custom hours and a date-bound limit (only booking until November 6). So the broken ones look like the Devised Theatre appointments above. And the only one that is working is the ANTH 100 below: Both of the above screenshots are pulling from the same calendar and availability. We were able to get the Devised Theatre one to display some availability by setting it to a custom limited date range and custom hours, then reverting it back to standard availability and no date range which seemed to preserve the availability the system found when limited, but provides no availability beyond those previously set custom hours despite having no more set limitations. Do we have to fiddle with custom availability to "unlock" standard availability? Or is there an actual fix that would resolve this issue?
Microsoft Outlook All Day Meetings - Defaults to "Free" Instead of Busy???
This is an interesting problem that I think was just overlooked during the creation of All Day Events in Outlook. To give a scenario our organization operates on Microsoft Bookings which uses your blocks to show availability. We constantly have people who take time off or need a day to do something off-site and for whatever bizarre reason All-Day events default to free. Besides the fact this is backwards and infuriating to say the least - it causes so much organizational problems as no one expects an All-Day blocked event to mean you are free. Thats quite the opposite of why you would block your calendar all day I would even go as far to say its completely counter intuitive for All-Day events to be marked as free, who the heck is free when they are OOO for the day? Thats the view point I am coming from / the scenario of why its a hassle though, our workflow operates heavily on our calendar blocks. Can we change this default for our entire organization or per user? Is the only way to make the meeting and then manually change it to busy? This seems like something that was just overlooked and never fixed or address. When we talk to our other Managed Service Providers they just laugh at how much of an oxymoron this feature is - "Im out all day today but outlook marked me as free"............Custom fields in book screen
I'd like to add a field to the book screen that requires the user to add a subject to their request. At the moment, calendar entries only show, for example, "60-minute discussion with ...", so it's difficult to know in advance what sort of conversation you're getting into. Copilot tells me there's an "add a custom field" option, but I can't find it. Does anyone have a suggestion? Thanks.Outlook Calendar No Longer Syncing with MS Bookings for One Staff Member
Hi everyone, One of our MS Bookings users (listed as staff on a shared calendar) has the “Events on Office calendar affect availability” option turned on, which allows her Outlook calendar to sync with MS Bookings. This was working fine before, but we recently noticed that it stopped syncing — her Outlook calendar events are no longer reflected on the MS Bookings side, even though the option remains enabled. All other staff members on the same shared calendar with that setting turned on are syncing normally. Has anyone experienced this before? What could be causing this, and how can we troubleshoot it? Thanks in advance for any help!Calendar not showing correct times for one day
I created a calendar that my company will use for our booth at an upcoming conference. The first day of the show, the booth is only open from 4 p.m. - 6 p.m., but not matter what I do, the time displayed when you select a service on that first day is from 8 a.m. - 6 a.m. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? It makes absolutely know sense.
Main bookings calendar not showing busy blocks from outlook
When we first started using bookings earlier in the year, if you had an appointment in outlook it would show a block for the staff being busy. This is necessary so when manually adding appointments we don't double book a staff member. Now however, those blocks are not showing. Outlook does appear to be pushing the info to bookings, but they only show if you go into the "Calendar and Availability" section of the staff details screen (multiple clicks outside of the main calendar). Going there every single time to book a staff member is not practical. Does anyone know how to get the main calendar to show when staff are busy again?Time off for Booking schedule
I have created a Booking Calendar for a training plan that will last 4 weeks. I am not available on one of the days due to a conference in middle of the calendar. I see documentation about Time Off for a Booking but don't see where this is done. Is this still available?
