Schedule your meeting in Outlook

After you have connected to the HPE MyRoom servers from Outlook, you are ready to schedule your meeting in Outlook.

 

Set up your meeting   

 

Use the Outlook Start time and End time fields to set the date and time of your meeting or choose your date in the MyRoom Add-In and adjust the time using the Outlook fields. Enter a subject or event name for the meeting and the email addresses of those you want to invite to your meeting. The location of the meeting is automatically set to HPE MyRoom Meeting.  

 

The data starts to appear in the body of the email. The keys will remain as <pending> until you send the email.     

Set up date and time

In the HPE MyRoom panel, choose the room you want to use for your meeting or event from the list of rooms you own. If you do not have a conflicting meeting scheduled in that room, you will see that it is Available.  

 

If the Room is marked as Unavailable, either a conflicting meeting is already scheduled or your meeting length is too short or too long: HPE MyRoom meetings are a minimum of half an hour long to a maximum of 12 hours long. In the first case, you can choose another room if your meeting must be at that time. In the second case, adjust the start and end times of the meeting to meet the above constraints.
