When I'm on a trip and my calendar shows Out of Office for the whole week, why would EIOBOARD show me as in a recurring meeting that's on my calendar? When the meeting is over it checks me back in and shows me as IN for the rest of the week. Out of Office should supercede all other calendar entries and leave me Out of Office for the whole time I am Out of Office.

It sounds like you have an appointment (or multiple appointments) in your Outlook Calendar that are being synchronized to your EIOBoard Calendar, then processed as Future Statuses. This could be because of a manual synchronization, automatic synchonization, or with the Exchange Sync feature if you are a Customer-Hosted user (and your EIOBoard administrator has configured this feature).

Good news, Tracker! There will also be a new feature added in version 8 which will allow you to "lock" a Future Status. This means that you will be able to lock your "Out of Office" Future Status, and then any additional Future Statuses which occur during this time will not be processed. This will apply to all Future Statuses, whether they were added manually, from an Outlook Sync, or from an Exchange Sync.
