To add permissions to YOUR calendar so that others can view free/busy time, details, or edit your appointments, follow this guide.

Open Outlook and view your calendar. Right click on your own calendar and select "properties"

Then click ADD and search for their name in the address list and hit ADD / OK to go back to the calendar properties page

Email - Schedule Shared Resource

How to Schedule A Shared Resource in Outlook

Start Meeting or Appointment

In Outlook, you can start a new meeting or new appointment with the intention of reserving a resource such as a conference room. 

Rooms...

If you are adding a room with a "Meeting", you can simply click the "Rooms" button to get a list of room resources. 

Scheduling Assistant

If you are in an "Appointment" or "Meeting" you can use the scheduling assistant to also add the rooms. 

Choose the rooms you want and click the "Rooms ->" button to add. 

Add Attendees...

It is also possible from the scheduling assistant to search for and add a "Resources ->", such as a vehicle, to the invitation. 

Verify Open

The scheduling assistant will also show you meetings on the calendar that you or others have scheduled to avoid conflicts. Meetings marked as "Private" will not publicly show the details but will show as blocked off from scheduling. 

Rejections

Most resources that are setup for scheduling will reject the meeting and send notice if there is a conflict. Please pay special attention to any failures to reserve a resource. The meeting will still be accepted on YOUR personal calendar but rejected on the resource calendar. This can cause some awkward situations where a room is double booked and both attendees know they reserved the room. The first person to reserve the room gets the reservation.

Email - Signature Builder & Outlook Update

This documentation describes how to build an email signature from a template builder website and add a signature in Outlook. 

This documentation only focuses on Outlook for Windows. The online or Mac version of Outlook will not be addressed in this documentation. 

URL

Navigate to the signature builder page at https://signature.folience.services

Choose Company

By default, all company signatures are shown on the landing page. Choose your company in the dropdown box. 

image-1657831302864.png

Fill Out & Copy

The information that 's built into the signature is different between companies. Some fields are taken away or added based on the company selection. You will fill in the information of the requested fields (Name Title, Email, Phone, etc...) for the company you have selected. 

image-1657831615873.png

You may also choose to include pronouns by adding them after your name. Ex. John Doe (He/Him)

The check box to the immediate right of the fields allows you to add/remove that field if you desire.

The information in the signature will update in real-time as you type so you can see what it will look like.

It is possible that when the signature is copied & pasted into Outlook, some of the formatting will be slightly changed. While it will be close, it is difficult to replicate a signature in Outlook from a web page exactly as it is shown. 

Once you have completely filled out the information, you will choose "Copy Signature To Clipboard" directly above the signature you want to copy into your clipboard. 

image-1657832625650.png

Paste Into Outlook Signature

The easiest way to get to your signatures is to start a new email to bring up the option to get to your signatures options. 

image-1657832739004.png

New

You may choose to clear out your existing signature and paste (CTRL+ALT+V) from your clipboard if you have an existing email signature you would like to overwrite. 

Due to ease of creating new signatures and issues that may occur when deleting old information, our recommendation is to create a new email signature and give it a new name. Ex: CoY

image-1657832897563.png

Change your "New messages" signature to the name you just created and paste (CTRL+ALT+V) or (Right-Click - Paste) into the signature field from what is saved in your clipboard. 

image-1657833066139.png

Click "OK" to complete the change.

Set up 2-step verification for Office 365

Office for business Office 365 Admin

Once your admin enables your organization with 2-step verification (also called multi-factor authentication), you have to set up your account to use it.

By setting up 2-step verification, you add an extra layer of security to your Office 365 account. You sign in with your password (step 1) and a code sent to your phone (step 2).

  1. Check whether your Office 365 admin has turned on multi-factor authentication for your account. If they haven't, when you try to do these steps you won't see the options in Office 365.

  2. Sign in to Office 365 with your work or school account with your password like you normally do. After you choose Sign in, you'll see this page:

    First Sign in screen
  3. Choose Set it up now.

  4. Select your authentication method and then follow the prompts on the page. Or, watch the video to learn more.

    Choose your authentication method and then follow the prompts on the screen.

  5. After you verify your alternate contact method, choose Next.

  6. Once you complete the instructions to specify how you want to receive your verification code, the next time you sign in to Office 365, you'll be prompted to enter the code that is sent to you by text message, phone call, etc.

    To have a new code sent to you, press F5.

    When you sign in with 2-step verification, you'll be prompted for a code.

We strongly recommend setting up more than one verification method. For example, if you travel a lot, consider setting up Microsoft Authenticator for your verification method. It's the easiest verification method to use, and a way to avoid text or call charges.

Microsoft 365 Sharing Mobile Number With Coworkers

Employees who wish to be reachable by other employees while traveling, off work hours, or otherwise away from their computers may wish to make their mobile phone number known.

Feel free to mix and match from these options - they are not mutually exclusive. You may choose to do all or none of these.

There is no company requirement to share your mobile number with other employees.

Many members of staff have chosen to only be reachable at their company phone number and not to share their personal, private phone number with anyone. You may choose to install the Zoom app on your mobile device to allow you to make and receive calls from Zoom the same as you would from your computer. Alternatively, Zoom can be configured to simultaneously ring through to another number of your choice, effectively forwarding calls to your personal number.

If there are any questions about the specific requirements for your job duties, please discuss them with your manager.

Option 1 - Put your mobile number in your e-mail signature

Build your e-mail signature using the Folience Signature Builder tool. When filling out your information, be sure to fill in the mobile number and check the box next to the field.

image.png

When the checkbox is checked, the mobile phone field is included in the signature and able to be copied into Outlook.

If you wish to have this number populated or updated, please send an e-mail to the helpdesk with the new number that you would like used and we will update it for you.
