If you are scheduling a three-day conference, you can schedule one appointment with a duration of three days to cover the entire period. Appointment Types Free, Tentative, Busy, and Out of Office are levels of availability that affect the way an appointment is displayed in Busy Search and in users' Calendars. Free means that the appointment will appear on a user's Calendar, but will not be marked as Busy in Busy Search. Tentative means that a user intends to attend the appointment, but that dependencies or other factors could prevent his or her going. Busy means that the user is not available to be scheduled for a meeting.
