#Microsoft365 introduces enhanced scheduling experience in #Microsoft #Office365 #Teams

 


Organization: HCS COMPANY

New Feature: Enhanced scheduling experience in Teams

 

 

Major update: Announcement started

Applied To: All

 

 

We’re updating Microsoft Teams with an enhanced scheduling experience.

  • We will roll this feature out in mid-February 2020.

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 54364.

[How does this affect me?]

We are replacing the existing scheduling form with a new form that retains all existing scheduling functionality. The new form provides an improved view of available time; allows changing event information from the scheduling assistant tab; and includes an option for required and optional attendees. The new form also includes search within the location picker.

Additional features for organizers include:

  • All day events: a new toggle converts meetings to an all-day event.
  • Availability status: both people and location search provide a visual clue (red) to indicate non-availability.
  • Cancellation with message: provides a message when cancelling an event if desired.
  • Tabs in edit/view mode: tabs provide easy access to chats, meeting notes, files, scheduling assistant, and white board.
  • Time zone picker: meeting schedulers can select the time zone they wish to use for the meeting; by default the form selects the system time zone.

Those invited to a meeting may choose whether to RSVP and, if so, to add a message to an RSVP if desired.

[What do I need to do to prepare for this change?]

There is no action you need to take to prepare for this change, but you might consider updating your user training and notifying your help desk.
