Manage an Exchange Resource

Introduction

The owner of an Exchange Resource has the ability to modify certain attributes of the resource, including who can Direct Book the resource and the times the resource is available. For more information on Exchange Resources at the University of Wyoming see the Exchange Resource FAQ (www.uwyo.edu/askit/displaydoc.asp?askitdocid=110).

Procedure

Exchange Resources can only be managed by using Outlook Web App (OWA). Permissions are no longer modified on resource mailboxes by using Outlook, and doing so will cause the resource to not behave as expected.

In order to manage a resource using OWA, follow these steps:

1. Log into OWA (Outlook Web App) with your UWYO username. See How To Access and Use Outlook Web App (www.uwyo.edu/askit/displaydoc.asp?askitdocid=153) for details on logging into OWA.
    
2. Click once on your name in the upper right corner of the window.
