Exch2010 Room Mailboxes - disable unautherized users to create Meeting Request

Hi all,
This one is giving me a headache. I have created some Room Mailboxes which I all want to act the same, which is as followed:
- Everyone (we have mailgroup with all users) has review rights
- Certain users have editor rights
- Resource Booking Attendant is disabled
Basically I want to configure these in a similar way as the old fashioned Public Folders.
I've tried a lot of settings / methods, currently I did as followed:
- Within Exchange 2010 EMC I created a Room Mailbox
- I gave myself Full Access rights
- Mailbox is automatically added to my Outlook 2013
- I right-click the calendar and go to properties. I set Default and Anonymous to no rights. I add a mailgroup with all our users and set that to review (so no creation of items / folders)
I would now expect that no users except for myself / administrator are allowed to make an appointment: WRONG. But a strange wrong this is:
- If I use Outlook 2003, I am unable to create an appointment
- If I use Outlook 2013, I am unable to create an appointment
- If I use Exchange webmail (OWA), I am unable to create an appointment
- If I use Outlook for Mac, I am unable to create an appointment
- If I use Outlook 2010, I can suddenly simply create a Meeting Request. This then sends a mail to the Room Mailbox and adds an appointment as tentative
All of the above is done with the same useraccount.
So what's up with this? I simply want to disable this tentative stuff altogether. I only want people with editor rights to create and change meetings, all the other folks should simply be reviewers unable to create anything whatsoever. Hopefully anyone here
has the solution for me, thanks a lot for your time / help.
All the best, Jim.

Thanks for your reply.
Here is the output when checking the permissions (see below).
I replaced the usernames by something anonymous.
So basically it comes to:
Default has no rights.
Anonymous has no rights.
Two mailgroups which contain all employees have review rights.
Five users have editor rights.
Still 'regular users' (which should only have review rights) can still doubleclick this calendar (only works in Office 2010) and create a new Meeting Request.
How come this is possible?

Not able to create meeting request in outlook using desktop connection

Hi All,
We installed the desktop connect professional edition and integrated MS outlook and CRM business activity.
Our goal is to trigger an outlook meeting request (not an outlook appointment).
We tried to configure this by creating a CRM business activity and syncing with outlook but does not seem to work.
We are able to create an outlook appointment but not a meeting request.
What we envision is the business activity needs to trigger a accept/reject/ reschedule meeting request functionality. Only when the user accepts the meeting request it should sync the outlook calendar / SAP calendar.
Is this functionality available out-of-box or does it need enhancements to the interface ?
Regards,
S.Balaji

Hi All,

Office365 User not receiving Meeting Request Email (but shows in Calendar)

Hi,
We have one user (so far) who has successfully migrated from Exchange 2007 to 'Office365' but when you sent them an meeting request they do not get ANY email notification of it. No Spam, rules, junk email are affecting it. There are no delegates on the account.
I have removed the Office365 user license for them and then re-added it but made no difference.
If the user goes into the calendar they can actually 'see' the meeting and accept / decline it in there but we obviously need the user to get some email notification of it so they are aware of a meeting and now get a 'surprise' meeting they knew nothing about!
Other migrated users are able to receive email notifications of meeting requests without issue. There is just no trace of it for this user.

Hi Peter,
As per your description above, I understand that one user cannot receive meeting requests, instead, the meetings are placed on their calendar directly.
I would like to confirm that whether he/she configured the email account into any Outlook clients, or actually we are talking about the web-based Outlook in Office 365 portal?
If this is an issue in the Outlook desktop client, please check if you have ticked the option of
Automatically accept meeting requests and remove canceled meetings
under FILE>Options>Calendar>Auto Accept/Decline... Try untick it and verify again.
If Outlook client is not involved here, I would suggest you post your question in the forum of Office 365 Community - email and calendar, where you can get more experienced responses:
http://community.office365.com/en-us/f/158.aspx
The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us. Thank you for your understanding.
Hope this helps.

E-REC EHP5 - Prerequisites for MSS user for Create Requisition request

We are implementing E-REC EHP5. As a MSS user when line manager tries to create requisition request on portal, although it takes on a new page called "Stat Processes" we are getting error "no data available" and hence can not proceed on that page. We have assigned R3 role "SAP_RCF_REQUISITION_REQUESTER" to the line manager and on portal we have assigned him MSS user role.
Is there any other prerequisite for the said functionality of Create Requisition request.

Hi,
In the IMG, navigate to :
Personnel Management -> HR Administrative Services -> Configuration of Forms/Processes -> Process Configuration
-> IMG activity "Test Process"
Enter the process name "HR_MSSRCF_REQUISITION" and execute (F8). You should see the form scenario data in table view. Use the F4 help in the "Field Value" column for those entries where the "Value Help" column is checked. You should get a pop-up with the field values. If not you need to make sure that HR_MSSRCF_REQUISITION iis linked to form scenario S_HRMSSRCF_REQUISITION in table T5ASRPRSCFORM. Also make sure that you have the last SP for the ERP common parts BP 1.51 installed in your portal. Finally assign role SAP_RCF_RECRUITER_ERC_CI_2 and SAP_RCF_MANAGER to your recruiter.
Hope it helps,
Kind Regards
Christine

Add user to created transport request

Hi
How can add add and remove a user after a transport request has been created in charm?
Santosh

Hi,
you want to add a user to your transport request?
Create a new task using the appropriate action from drop-down action list or try to add a new task to your request directly via SE01/SE10 in DEV system (maybe restricted though).

Missing information when an Outlook user cancel a meeting request

Hi all,
Pardon the cross-posting but I put this question up in the iCal discussion group and didn't get any responses. There seam to be a lot of iCal ics and Mail integration discussion here so I thougt I'd try my luck.
I've just switched over from Entourage to Mail and a client sent me a meeting request. iCal picked it up OK and I was able to see the meeting details, with comments, and respond through iCal.
Today the meeting got cancelled. iCal pick up the meeting cancellation from Mail and deleted the calendar event. However, there was a lot of other information in the meeting cancellation request file. My client had suggested other times and asked for responses. The only way I could see this information was by saving the ics file to disk and opening it in TextEdit.
Is there any way to get iCal to display the full contents of a cancelled meeting request rather than simply deleting the event?
Thanks,
Nigel

Hi Dineke,
You can contact your Exchange administrator to run the following command to check it:
Get-Mailbox –Identity yourname | Select Name, HiddenFromAddressListsEnabled
Or you can view your colleague’s Default Global Address List in OWA to check whether you are listed there or not.
Please check whether there is any transport rule or Outlook rule setting in your mailbox. Also change a new computer and create a new Outlook profile to have a try.

Ganapathy

Hi Ganapathys,
For the error "failed due to the following error: 80080005", please Make sure that Outlook and Powershell are either both running as a standard user (not elevated) or that they are both running elevated as Administrator. They need to be running at the same
integrity level to avoid that error.
Please try to run powershell as standard user without "run as admin".

Allowing Users to Create folders or files on desktop by .bat file

Dear Microsoft,
I had disabled the user to create file in desktop using a script which I had seen in the forum, script which I has used in Echo Y| cacls %userprofile%\desktop /P %username%:R and created a .bat file, it worked well and disabled user access to save
files in desktop. Now I need to enable the access. Please help me to make the changes in the script or to write a new script to enable the access
With Warm Regards,
Subin Thomas

Echo Y| cacls %userprofile%\desktop /P %username%:R save this in to .bat file and run as administrator..DONE
Since %UserProfile% and %UserName% can have embedded spaces, you should surround both with double quotes in order to make your script robust. Furthermore, by giving users read-only access to their own desktop, your popularity rating is likely to drop dramatically.
"Full access" might be more appropriate.
echo Y| cacls "%userprofile%\desktop" /G "%username%":F

User role for service requests from the SSP

Does the End User role have enough permissions for users to create service requests from the SSP? I know for incidents it is but I am not sure about service requests. If you go through the Service Catalog Checklist, step 5 to create the User
Role brings up a new role based on the Author role and not on the end user.

Room Mailbox - When creating a meeting request, the Room Mail Box Alias message returns with Delivery Failure

Good Day,
Hopefully someone here has the know why on this one.
I have setup the Room Mailbox as per several online tutorials. From my Outlook 2013 I can access the room and its calendar.
But when I create a new meeting request, I add myself as an Attendee for testing purposes. When I select the room from the rooms button. It adds the room mailbox [email protected] to the attendee list.
When I click send, the alias address returns as below:
Delivery has failed to these recipients or groups:

resending the message. If the problem continues, please contact your helpdesk.

I have also use created a room list and added the rooms to it. They show upo in my outlook.
I have rebooted the server and tried various permissions and option settings in Outlook with no luck. I even tried enabling the user account in AD. Nothing works and the email always comes back undeliverable.
One post I read suggested that In the Resource General tab that Enable the Resource booking attendant be ticked. Either way it doesn't get right of the problem.

Ok I see from the output below there were two problems fixed the first one, but I can't figure out how to correct this one:
The forwardingAddress is wrong. But I also do not know what it should be

Office365- I created shared mailboxes for a user- they show on web but not on Outlook2013

I created shared mailboxes for a user- they show on web but not on Outlook2013-
If the user logs on to office365 web - I can see the 3 shared folders- but if when she opens Outlook she is not able to see them-
Do they - should they be manually added ? How ?
Thanks !!

Hi,
Thanks for your question.
Not sure what exactly you mean by "created shared mailboxes for a user", by default, Outlook automatically loads all mailboxes to which the user has "Full Access" permission. So please first check if you have granted the right permissions
for that mailbox to the user.
When I say "By default", I mean you didn't disable the Outlook Auto-Mapping service. If you did, then the shared mailbox will not be automatically added to the user's Outlook profile. So please have a check on this:
https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2646504
Also, please note if the shared mailbox was just created, or the user was just added as a member of that shared mailbox, you probably will need to wait for a few hours for the shared mailbox to appear in the user's Outlook folder.

Ethan Hua
