Microsoft Outlook GUI

Purpose

This chapter describes how to use the Microsoft Outlook/Exchange GUI for audio conference scheduling.

The chapter contains the following sections:

“Overview” on page 151 – introduces the Microsoft Outlook GUI and its system requirements.

“Scheduling a new conference” on page 160 – describes the interface that users and super-users can use to schedule conferences.

“Setting a delegate user for Microsoft Outlook Calendar” on page 167 – describes the process that users can use to delegate a user.

Overview

Users using Microsoft Outlook can schedule and manage ICB conference information using Microsoft Outlook as an alternative to the Browser User Interface. To access the ICB server, use the following Microsoft calendar GUIs:

Microsoft Outlook, version 2000, XP, or 2003.

Microsoft Exchange, version 5.5, 2000, or 2003.

Since meetings automatically appear in the user’s Outlook calendar, the user does not have to book the meeting in two places: Browser User Interface and Microsoft Outlook. Microsoft Outlook sends out e-mail invitations to all invited parties. When the meeting is created, the conference DN and password are added to the e-mail invitation. The chairperson information is not added. This information can be verified by pressing the Display button.

ICB conferences can be scheduled up to one year in advance.
