Quick background: I like to track time spent in project-related meetings
within project so I can report on it, but I setup the meetings using
Outlook/Exchange to be able to check availability of people & conference
rooms. Now that I've setup a pilot Project Server / PWA system, and have
loaded a couple of projects into the system, I'm starting to see a potential
problem. When I publish a project to the server, then import my tasks into
Outlook, I essentially get a "double booking" for these meetings (one from
Project Server, and one from Outlook/Exchange).
If I just setup the meeting from within Project, I don't have visibility
into people's schedules, and I can't find a good way to specify the time for
the "task". If I set it up from Outlook, it doesn't look like I can tie it
back to my project. I'm sure that this has come up before, but I wasn't
able to find any reference to it when searching the newsgroup. Any
suggestions on ways to "merge" the appointments in Outlook?
