Compare team availability

Read Team

1. Open Team in the Calendar sidebar.

   Use Week for the wider pattern or Day for a closer comparison.

2. Choose the period.

   Use the date navigation and Today controls.

3. Find the people you need.

   Search people, roles or teams. Expand the relevant team group.

4. Inspect the day.

   A person’s day cell lists the meetings, focus, internal and busy time behind its available hours. Private events read Busy.

Use Find a time

1. Choose the participants.

   Use a person’s Add … to Find a time control or Add people in the side panel. You remain in the participant set.

2. Choose How long and When.

   Select the duration and This week or Next week.

3. Read the proposed opening.

   Review Nefer’s pick and the Also free alternatives. Compare them with focus time and the intended participants.

4. Choose Book for a suitable opening.

   It prepares New meeting with the people and timing. Check the remaining details and explicitly create the meeting.

Interpret availability carefully

An open-calendar hour is not a guarantee of capacity to deliver another task. Tasks → Workload uses estimates and responsibility, while Team shows the schedule’s free and busy periods.

Find a time respects the current working-hour and calendar settings. Turning off Nefer’s calendar-reading permission removes the timing assistance described in her settings. In a solo workspace, team-specific places may be omitted or require another plan.

If no common opening appears

• Reduce the duration or inspect the following week.
• Review working hours, time zones, busy sources and the chosen participants.
• Check whether a meeting or focus block is correctly occupying the time.
• Avoid exposing private event details; Busy is sufficient when comparing availability.
