Creating and Using Groups

< Previous | Next >

This feature allows you to create groups for multiple users so you can easily find open time slots and invite them to meetings without entering each member of the group individually.

Types of Groups That Can Be Created

Group Type (Access Level)

Description

Public (PUB)

This option is not available at Dartmouth.

Private (PRV)

The person who created the group is the only person who can use it.

Administrative (ADM)

This option is not available at Dartmouth.

Members Only (MEM)

These groups are available for use by members of the group only.

Creating Groups

To create a group:

  • Select Manage Groups from the Tools menu.
  • Click the New button and enter a name for the group you are creating.
  • Select the group Type (Access Level) by clicking on the down arrow next to Private.
  • Add the members of the group by entering the names in the Add field. After each name is entered, click on the green checkbox.
  • You can also add existing Groups and Resources to your group, if needed.
  • Click OK.

You can also Edit, Delete, or Print the groups by selecting the Manage Groups command.

Tip

When viewing a group schedule, the Combined column shows, in red, when there are conflicts for the members of the group. White spaces indicate that all members of the group are available for that time slot.
