Scheduling Conferences Using the Reservation Calendar
Creating a New Reservation
There are three methods of creating a new reservation:
Each method requires the selection of a starting time slot in the Reservation Calendar. The 
default time slot is the current half-hour period of local time.
In all views, if the New Reservation (
) button is clicked without selecting a starting time 
slot or if a time slot is selected that is in the past, the Reservation becomes an Ongoing 
conference immediately and is not added to the Reservations calendar.
After selecting a starting time slot in the Reservation Calendar you can create a reservation 
with a default duration derived from the creation method used or by interactively defining 
the duration of the reservation.
Method I – To create a reservation with default duration of 1 hour:
>> 
In the Reservation Calendar toolbar, click the New Reservation (
) button to create a 
reservation of 1 hour duration.
Method II – To create a reservation with default duration of ½ hour:
>> 
Right-click and select New Reservation to create a reservation of ½ hour default 
duration.
Method III – To interactively define the duration:
1
In the calendar, click & drag to expand the time slot to select the required Date, Start 
Time and Duration for the reservation.
2
In the Reservation Calendar toolbar, click the New Reservation (
) button or right-click 
and select New Reservation.
Example
