Important Considerations
When rescheduling a meeting, especially using the quick drag-and-drop method, Teams provides helpful feedback:
- Invitee Availability: Before the meeting time is fully updated, Teams will notify you regarding the availability of your invitees for the new proposed time. This allows you to quickly see if the new slot works for everyone, or if further adjustments might be needed. This feature is crucial for minimizing conflicts and ensuring good attendance.
By using this method, you can efficiently manage your schedule and communicate changes to participants with minimal effort.
