Jan 31, 2018 · I was hoping to get advice on the best way to set up a calendar in Office 365 for vacation/time-off request approvals. Would the best way be to create an email address and have the calendar items associated with that email? Or creating a group? Or creating a room for those requests and calendar events? Thanks!

May 12, 2021 · I could create a new Group with a Calendar. Although, we already have a org-Wide Team and it doesn't actually do anything - can't email orgteam@company.com and it doesn't come with an Outlook calendar. I don't think I should have to add someone to a group for them to see a calendar I want public to the entire company.

Jun 27, 2022 · The event created in Outlook does not appear in Bookings app as "Time Off" and therefore allows a service to be booked at the same date/time as the "Time Off" event. The Outlook calendar event for 24/06/22 shows up in the Bookings calendar in "Blue" compared to the "Time Off" event created inside Bookings which is in Orange.

Dec 5, 2019 · End goal is to allow people to book time on a group calendar for their days off. I was thinking of using a Form or a PowerApp that presents a month view and they can click on the dates they want off. V2.0 should check to see if there are a certain # of people that have already requested that same day off and if it is over a certain #, deny it.

Apr 26, 2021 · LXChris Hello, I understand you're looking for a way to implement a vacation calendar that integrates with each user's personal Outlook calendar and provides a general overview for the whole team. While Teams and Outlook are powerful tools, setting up a seamless vacation tracking system can be a bit tricky.

May 4, 2022 · Hi RobElliott, thank you for your reply.I have used Power Apps to develop Leave Request but only halfway because my organization decides to use SharePoint for the system, similar to the video I posted earlier.

That way, it won't book co-workers' time for the day, making my day off show up as Busy on their calendars. This approach works....but it's basically a workaround. You have to create a second calendar entry to actually block the time on your own calendar. It'd be great if Outlook had some native functionality for this.

Aug 15, 2022 · I am also having the same issue. Occurred suddenly and nothing happened after I clicked "Create Time Off". Also for an existing Time Off created for a staff, the Calendar Page under the staff also showed "Time off (deleted service)". Very strange and never happened before. Please advise! Thanks!

May 10, 2020 · I have created a Team for use within a specific Group of which all members use Office 365 and the Outlook Calendar to plan time off, meetings etc. To improve collaborative working I would like details on personal calendars (and respective group calendars) to be visible on the Teams Calendar so that all information relating to Team Members ...

Jan 28, 2018 · I've added a new site to our O365 account called Calendars, in which I've created a few calendars (add app > calendar) for various purposes (Time Off for staff vacation requests, Conference Line for internal resource booking, etc.), and I've modified the fields for each calendar to remove fields that don't apply (like 'Location' for the Time ...
