When you receive an appointment, task, or reminder note, you might not be able to accept it. In GroupWise, you can let the sender know if you accept or decline, specify a level of acceptance or availability, and add additional comments. You can also delegate the item to another user. The sender can find your response by checking the item’s properties.
If you decline an appointment after its start time, the sender sees the appointment as deleted rather than declined in the appointment’s properties.
To accept or decline a calendar item:
Open the appointment, task, or reminder note.
Click Accept or Decline on the toolbar.
