-----Reposted from Outlook Forum---
I am currently using outlook 2007 & OWA/exchange 2010 to track time spent on projects by sending(booking) to a resource calendar. If I forget to track some time and would like to set this time on my calender on a previous day and send to the resource, the resource will deny due to it being an appointment in the past. I cannot seem to find a way in the API and in the MS forums to complete this task easily.

Is anyone else doing this or are there 3rd party tools that will allow to book resources in the past successfully? Since the resource box is the tracking control, moves, cancels, time changes etc need to propogate to resource.

If turning off booking assistant and just using tentative, cancels not going through.

Any help with this or direction on finding the answer would be appreciated.

Thanks!
 
Tried every combination of flags for CalendarProcessing.

All the Request Policy features are fully enabled for all users on the

projects.

Here are the current Calendar Processing settings for a test project:

AutomateProcessing : AutoUpdate

AllowConflicts : True

MaximumDurationInMinutes : 0

AllowRecurringMeetings : True

EnforceSchedulingHorizon : False

ScheduleOnlyDuringWorkHours : False

This is something trying to avoid so users can just deal with one calendar but yes, this is an option if we cannot figure out another solution.
 
The results on my 2010 server is below - the calendar accepted it as tentative, so it is possible. I'm just not sure what prop controls it - i'm guessing one of the *inpolicy or *outofpolicy props.
