Converting an Appointment to a Meeting

Issue/Question

I have an appointment scheduled on my Outlook calendar that I would like to convert to a meeting.

Environment

  • Microsoft Outlook 2019

Resolution

Once converted, a meeting cannot be reverted back to an appointment. The scheduled event would need to be deleted and recreated as an appointment.
  1. Double-click on the appointment to open the appointment window.
  2. On the Appointment tab in the Attendees group, click the Invite Attendees button.
  3. Enter contact information for the people you want to invite to the meeting.
  4. Add a location if necessary, and then click the Send Invitation button.
