How to create an Exchange resource for meetings
- Create a new user in active directory with an exchange mailbox.
- Logon to outlook with the newly created account.
- Open Tools -> Options
- Click the Calendar options
- Click the Resource Scheduling
- Only have the first 2 checkboxes selected, 1)Automatically accept meeting requests and process canellations. 2) Automatically decline conflicting meeting requests.
- When a dialog box for set permissions for offline use appears, ensure that box is checked titled “set standard resource permissions for all users.” This lets all users book/view appointments but only change/remove the ones they’ve created
When scheduling the resource, treat it as an attendee and invite it as a resource.
