Scheduling Plug-in Configuration

first be registered. Only a single scheduling plug-in may be registered at one
time. The plug-in configuration is performed in the Configuration Wizard under
the System Settings, Scheduling node of the navigation tree.
Exchange MAPI Appointment Interface Install Checklist
• Create a calendar folder for each schedulable room in Exchange. You can use a single
Exchange mailbox or multiple Exchange mailboxes to accomplish this.
• Create a user and grant that user access to the mailboxes that contain the schedule
information. See Appendix B: Configuring Microsoft Exchange Mailbox &
Permissions section on page 329 for more details on how to configure Exchange.
• Ensure the MAPI subsystem is installed on the RMS application server. Installing
Microsoft Outlook installs the MAPI subsystem.
• In the Configuration Wizard, select External Appointment Management/Schedule
System on the Scheduling page in the Welcome section.
• In the Configuration Wizard, configure the Scheduling Manager Service to run as the
user created above.
• In the Configuration Wizard, you must register and configure the Exchange MAPI
Appointment Interface scheduling plug-in.
For Each Room in the RMS application:
•Set Room Is Schedulable to Yes when adding new rooms.
• When adding a new room, click the Configure button on the Configure Exchange MAPI
Appointment Interface item and enter the Exchange server, mailbox names, and pick a
calendar folder if you are not using the default calendar.
• Use the Test button to ensure that the RMS application can access the mailbox and
calendar.
The RMS application must be configured for External Scheduling
Systems for the scheduling plug-in configuration dialog to be
displayed.
