Scheduling Group and Posted
Items
You can schedule appointments, tasks, and reminder notes for yourself and other users. You can also
reserve a block of time with a posted appointment.
For information about how appointments, tasks, and reminder notes differ from other item types, see
Section 3.1, “Understanding GroupWise Item Types,” on page 31 .
If you want to find out whether someone accepted a task or is coming to your meeting, you can
check for an accepted or declined status in the item’s Properties. For more information, see
“Checking the Status of Your Items” on page 40 .
All scheduled items can be retracted or rescheduled, even if the recipients have already opened and
accepted them. For more information, see
“Retracting Items You’ve Sent” on page 40 and
“Rescheduling an Appointment” on page 60 .
For more information about managing items after they have been sent or received, see Section 3.4,
“Managing Sent Items,” on page 39 and Section 3.5, “Managing Received Items,” on page 41 .
