of Exchange Server Cisco TMSXE is installed onto. Guidance is provided below, broken down based
on the version of Exchange you have installed onto.
Exchange 2003 Installations
For Exchange 2003 installations, access to booking the resources depends on which booking model
is selected.
In the synchronous mode, booking will be limited to users who are members of the User group
assigned Author access in the Configuration tool. In new installations, this group may be empty and
users will not be able to book these systems until this group is populated. Configure this group's
membership in Active Directory using the AD Users & Computer snap-in as desired to enable users to
start booking.
In the asynchronous mode, booking access is controlled by Delivery Restrictions where you can
define who can or can not send email to the resource account. By blocking mail sent by a user, that
user can not send an invite to the account and attempt to book it. The User Group defined in the
Configuration tool has no impact on Delivery Restrictions and should not be used to try to limit
booking access when Asynchronous Booking is enabled. Members of the defined User Group will still
have access to the calendar directly so be aware of potential mismatches. For more information on
configuring Delivery Restrictions please see the Microsoft article – How to Set Restrictions on a User
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa998925(EXCHG.65).aspx
Membership in the security group defined as Editor access have the additional ability to edit existing
meetings in the resource's calendar, including meetings created by other users. Configure this
group's membership in Active Directory using the AD Users & Computer snap-in as desired.
Note: Users may have to log out and back in before group membership changes are effective on
their client computer.
Exchange 2007 Installations
For Exchange 2007 installations, access to booking the resources is controlled via Resource Booking
Policies. The default setup on accounts will have AllBookInPolicy set to ‗true' meaning all users can
book the resource as long as the request falls within the restrictions defined on the resource account.
New accounts created by the Configuration tool will have the default Microsoft Exchange restrictions
enabled. These will limit how a user can book a meeting from Outlook, but will not limit bookings
made from Cisco TMS or directly in the Resource's calendar. Administrators may need to tune these
restrictions to their desired values to control booking by Outlook users.
Administrators may configure the standard CalendarSettings of the Exchange resource accounts to
their desire, including setting up Delegates and configuration for handling In-Policy and Out-of-Policy
requests. Administrators should not modify the following settings and leave them as configured by the
Configuration tool:

additional functionality when creating or editing meetings such as specifying conference parameters
and adding external participants. This form replaces the default Appointment form used in the Outlook
client. The use of this form is optional. If you do not wish to make the form available to your clients,
