How can we see attendee tracking for meetings in a public calendar?

Good Day,

We have a Public Calendar that is used to create company wide meetings. When my enduser creates a meeting on this public calendar, he cannot see who has accepted or declined the meeting. He has access to the Tracking button in the Ribbon. Tracking does show all who were invited. Tracking only shows "None" in the Response field.

I did some testing and when I attempted to create a meeting with attendees, I was met with the following alert pop up.

"This meeting is not in the Calendar folder for this account. Responses to this meeting will not be tallied."

How do we create meetings on the public calendar and be able to review attendee responses? This is MS Outlook 2013, and the exchange is MS  365. Also, I created a Calendar within the users account and was met with the same response.

Thank you,

Hi,

You meet the message because responses are only automatically processed when the meeting is in the default calendar. As mentioned, you are using a public calendar.

To workaround this problem in your scenario, you will need to track the response manually.

Open the meeting request and switch to the tracking page. Right click in the response field and choose the desired response.

Melon,

thank you. I have created a calendar within the users mailbox and I am still met with the same alert. Why?

Thanks!
