Summary
Users of Microsoft Office365 can now create busy blocks in Outlook that do not sync to Navigate360 by adding the category nosync to the event. This much requested enhancement gives faculty and staff more control over their calendars by allowing them to hold time on their Outlook schedules without impacting appointment availability in Navigate360.
