Can't see "show as free" items on group calendar

When our employees add a calendar item and select "show as free", the
item does not show up on the group calendar. We want to use the "show
as free" to designate where a person is. They would also add
additional events as "show as busy" for times when they are not
available for meetings.

I would appreciate any help...
 
What do you mean by 'group calendar' ? Do you mean it doesn't show up on
their free/busy?

In Outlook 2003/07 it is under "Actions", "View Group Schedules".
 
"Free" appointments aren't listed in the free busy, because that time is
free... they'd need to make tentative appointments to show their location.

You can't add to the 'show time as' options. We recommend putting
availability or location in the subject ("Available for calls " or "South
side office") and setting it to tentative so others know they can schedule
appointments.
