Person 1: Hiring manger person 2: Candidate a) We send an email to hiring manager where he/she can select slots that he/she can be available b) book these slots in his calendar (by for example sending them as tentative meeting time slots to the hiring manager) c) Make these slots available somewhere via a link d) send this link to the candidate e) When a candidate book a meeting with hiring manager on any of those slots f) send new booking with updated header g) Create a record in dynamics 36582Views0likes0CommentsPublic Meeting Room Bookings
Hi, my organisation has about 6 meeting rooms that are able to be booked by the public. We want individuals to want to be able to select the length of time they need the room for and for Bookings to block out the time in the calendar. Bookings doesn't appear to allow a variable length of time for a booking so a user could choose for 30 mins to 8 hours, it seems like a pretty basic ask, has anybody managed to achieve this in Bookings.183Views0likes1CommentMS Booking does not forward invitation to clients
we've setup a ms booking with the following options: but our clients do not receive an ordinary msteams invitation/appointment they all double checked their inbox (spam / junk / intrusion / not-relevant-filter) but it seems that the appointment got lost on the way to the client... Does someone have any ideas if that issue is client specific or a global issue?127Views0likes1CommentMS BOOKINGS- Shared bookings
The person who originally set up up our shared booking page no longer works for the company. She has removed herself as an Administrator but continues to get emails when customers cancel their appointments. I've checked every place possible and can't find her email anywhere so I'm confused why this is happening. Is there anyway to stop emails from going to the original Administrator who set up the shared bookings page for our company or do we need to create a new shared booking page?241Views0likes5CommentsMicrosoft Bookings: Allow double bookings of a staff member
Hello community, I hope someone can help me here, as I was unable to find any answers to this and documentation to Microsoft Bookings feels somewhat barebones. What I want to achieve: I want to have a bookings page, where customers can book appointments with one single staff member and I want to have up to three appointments to happen at the same time, all with the same one staff member. I don't want to use 1:N or group appointments, because the lack some basic functionality, e.g. they act as a single appointment with three slots and not as three distinct appointments. Because of this, the staff member only gets a single E-Mail for the first booking, but not for the others, that are booked later at the same time slot. Using dummy users is not a solution for me, as I want all of the bookings to be in the same Outlook calender of the one staff member, because we don't really use the bookings calender (would be just another tool to log into). So is there any way to enable a limited number of simultaneous 1:1-bookings for the same staff member? Thanks!149Views0likes0CommentsEdits to MS Bookings Appt
We've noticed just in the last few days when making an edit to an appointment in MS Bookings that the subject is changed to No Subject and the link for the Teams call no longer works for the colleague it's scheduled with. Any changes that may impact the tool for making edits to scheduled appts?218Views1like2CommentsMS (Double) Booking
This may sound counterintuitive, but I am looking for a way to set up a Bookings Page where double bookings are possible. Setting the max number of attendees to more than one sort of works, but this does not create separate meeting links for each attendee. I used to go into the booking calendar via exchange and manually set the "Show as" status for meetings to "Free". This used to work really well and would allow the specific slot to be booked again. However, it doesn't seem to be working any longer. Does anyone have any ideas or creative workaround to achieve this?755Views0likes2CommentsMS Bookings ignoring existing appointments / calendar availability
I've been trying to resolve this issue for one of our Student Support departments all day and can't seem to find a solution. At first, their booking calendar was ignoring the existing calendar appointments of all staff members except one. So, we took the following trouble-shooting steps: Unchecked the 'Always show time slots in business time zone' box on in the 'Bookings Page' options, as I understand it's buggy. Had each member of staff select 'Can view when I'm busy' from their sharing permissions for 'People in my organisation'. Ensured all staff members have the same settings in MS Bookings, including the 'Events of Office calendar affect availability.' Following this, when inspecting the staff overview in MS Bookings, I was able to see all appointments as 'busy' in the MS Bookings Calendar area, however two staff remain bookable from the booking page when they have existing calendar entries in place. There is no discernable reason for this. Is there something we're missing? We have to open appointments for learners for the next Academic session, but two members of staff would have their annual leave and lunch breaks and any other appointments within the college ignored.605Views1like0CommentsMicrosoft bookings page sending notifications to wrong email address
Microsoft bookings pages sending email notifications to the wrong email address. I have checked the reply to email address in the business information section and this seems to be correct, along with other settings in the back of this bookings page. This is happening across numerous pages, and I can't seem to get to the bottom of what is happening. The staff member receiving these emails doesn't have any connection to the bookings page they are receiving notifications for. Is there another area I can check who receives those notifications?381Views0likes1Comment
