Hi -
I recently posted a question about setting up a company wide view of all of
the individual calendars in my office. I was pointed towards the group
scheduling option - while this gives me the info we need, I do not see a way
of viewing this info in the calendar (31 day) view that we are looking for.
After doing further research on this discussion group - it looks like we can
get the view of the information by using a public calendar and then inviting
the public calendar as an attendee. This seemed to work nicely for us,
however, we are running into one issue - not sure if this is a bug or there
is a different way of resolving this. Anytime anyone accesses a scheduled
meeting on the public calendar - once they click on the meeting, it is added
to their personnal calendar in the case that they were not invited to the
meeting. If you look at the meeting attendee list - they are not on the list
but the meeting now shows up on their calendar. This is our preferred
solution if we can get around this problem.
Another option for us is to schedule the meeting on the shared public
calendar and then invite ourselves a second time - this forces the meeting to
show up in both places - the downside here is that 1) you need to be the
organizer and invite yourself (not the most intuitve solution) and 2) I don't
believe you will receive the responses about who will attend this way.
Any thoughts?
