24.5. Use Free/Busy Information

If colleagues have not released their calendars for viewing, it is still possible to determine when they have not entered any other appointments in their calendars, to organize a common appointment. This information is available through the free/busy system.

Before the free/busy data can be used, the correct address must first be specified in Outlook, so it can be retrieved. Proceed as follows:

24.5.1. Outlook 2013 to 2024

  1. In Outlook, go to "File" and select "Options".

  2. Go to the "Calendar" section.

  3. Now click on the "Free/Busy Options" button.

  4. Enter the search path into "Search location".

    The address is https://intra.net.lan/freebusy/%NAME%@%SERVER%.ifb.

    Use the name of the Intra2net system and enter the address as shown here.

    Since the Intra2net system automatically generates the free/busy information, the "Publish at location" check box must be unchecked.
