Track Delegated Emails With Microsoft Exchange Online

Microsoft Outlook is an application that allows you not only to see your own mailbox but you can track mailboxes of other users if they give you permissions. You can also delegate your email to other users.

You don't need to have an overview of your calendar, your assistant can have it. He or she can manage your time with classic calendar, but it is also possible with the Calendar module in Microsoft Outlook. He or she find out your free time and add a meeting to it.

Delegating the mailbox and its different functions can make your work easier. Due to the integration of the eWay-CRM, it is possible to use the delegating function not only in Microsoft Outlook, but also in eWay-CRM.
