  1. Introduction to Event Creation in Outlook
    Welcome to this quick tutorial on creating events in Outlook. In this video, we will explore the three main types of events: meetings, personal appointments, and reminders. Understanding these types will help you manage your time and commitments more effectively.
  2. Meetings and Meeting Invitations
    Let's start with meetings and meeting invitations in Outlook. A meeting is an event shared with other people. To create a meeting, click on 'New Event.' Here, you can add participants, choose a location, and even set up a Teams link if necessary. Once sent, your invitees will receive an email invitation. Whether you are the organizer or just a participant, this type of event marks you as busy, which makes sense since you will be spending time in a meeting.
  3. Personal Appointments
    Next, let's talk about personal appointments. These allow you to block off time in your calendar without inviting others. For example, if you have an external appointment that will take some of your time, you can set a time and place for yourself. During this type of event, you will be marked as busy, meaning no one can book meetings with you during this slot. Others will see you as busy. This type of event can also be used to focus on a task or to plan some time for yourself.
  4. Reminders
    Lastly, we have reminders. These do not block your availability. You can set a date and time, but your status will remain available. Reminders work perfectly for tasks, such as 'don’t forget to take the file at the end of the day,' or for all-day reminders, like your colleague's birthday. They are perfect for keeping track of your tasks or reminding you of events without blocking your calendar.
  5. Conclusion
    You now know how meetings, personal appointments, and reminders work in Outlook. These tools will help you manage your time and commitments effectively, ensuring that you stay organized and productive.
