Itineraries showing up on Outlook Calendars

[Lximenez]

Has anyone experienced other traveler's itineraries showing up on your calendar or other calendars that the travel is not for? If so, what did you do?

@Lximenez travel itineraries should only show up on a calendar if it is the traveler or if your site is set up to require approval for all trips or if all trips are set to notify the manager. I'm not sure but it might also be appearing on the calendar of those who are arranging travel for others.

Is that the case or are you saying that someone's travel appeared on another person's calendar that wasn't the approver or travel arranger for that person?

Kevin,

I am saying that someone's travel appeared on another person's calendar that wasn't the approver or travel arranger for that person.

Did the traveler send an email of the trip to this other person?
If so, Outlook could be doing it? (as this is triggered on all incoming emails). I turned it off and encourage others to do the same.

This issue is still around.  I have to go into my Outlook calendar and remove all of the flights, car rentals, and hotels from it each morning.  Changing the settings in Outlook isn't a resolution.  Outlook isn't causing the problem - CONCUR is. 

@KevinD - there has to be a simple way for those of us who have this issue can resolve it through CONCUR.

@Debbie-N-OK so I am understanding correctly, you are booking on behalf of others and all of their reservations are feeding into your Outlook, is that correct? Or am I misunderstanding how all the bookings are getting onto your Calendar.

Hi Kevin,

Not quite.

Anytime that I log in as someone else, I don't have to book something - approving out-of-policy bookings also does it.

Only problem with turning off the Event feature on Outlook - it also stops adding those items that you want added to your calendar.  This is an issue that CONCUR needs to fix.
