How to decline recurring Outlook meetings beyond a certain date?
I can attend some of the meetings I have been sent, but beyond a point in time, this will not be possible. Therefore I would like to remove all the meetings beyond this date.
Seemingly the only options are
- decline all
- decline one
The only solution I can think of is to wait until the last meeting has occurred, then remove the series, but why should I have to do that?
EDIT: some people seem to have not noticed that I am asking from the point of view as an invitee and NOT a meeting organiser
Not possible unfortunately. You can vote here https://outlook.uservoice.com/forums/322590-outlook-2016-for-windows/suggestions/20398333-provide-a-feature-to-cancel-a-recurring-meeting-wi
Had the same issue (as attendee who did not organize it). In Outlook 365 app, I clicked on the Appointment in calendar view and at the ribbon bar a new tab Meeting Series occur with Recurrence where I can set the End Date.
BUT I think in this case the meeting organizer is not informed, it's just removed from my calendar!
You should be able to change the "End By" date within the recurrence settings of the series.
- Open the entire series of the meeting(s) in question.
- Open the Recurrence dialogue box. (see screenshot below)
- Select and change the End By date.
I'm using Outlook 2013, but you can Google "Recurrence tab + Outlook version" to work out where it's located if your Outlook differs.
