Scheduling against multiple time zones with Outlook 2010

by asli 5. March 2010 09:24

Although not a new feature, the ability for Outlook to cast your calendar in multiple time zones is quite a useful one, as the work teams get more and more geographically dispersed.  It is easy to set up.  Go to File, Options and select Calendar. Scroll down until you see the section on Time Zones – choose the two time zones you work most frequently in. If you travel between them quite a bit, you can readily swap the one that you are currently in. All your appointments will shift to center the business hours squarely in the middle of your screen.

If you have quite a large span of hours between your time zones, you can ensure that business hours in one region do not scroll out of view by expanding your business hours.  In the same dialog box, you can change the work hours to be from 12AM-12AM, and then click on Saturday and Sunday, if you are in MEA, as those are working days for a good part of the region.

expand work hours

Your final screen should look something like this.
