Duplicating Calendar Events
In the Calendar Application/Portal - allow for singular duplication of events.
Not repeating events, just the ability to take an event and copy/paste it to another day.Example:
Tues - January 10th, Staff Meeting 10amDuplicate
Thursday - February 24th, Staff Meeting 10am
80 votesThanks for your feedback! The “duplicate event” option is available in the OWA Beta. Go to your calendar and right click on any event to find the option.

Onenote integration with outlook web access
Have the onenote link within outlook web access. It's been 8.5 months, since I switched from MS Outlook client to Outlook web access (browser). The skype integration works great, and the only thing that is missing is the Onenote integration. With local outlook client there is integration between a meeting, and onenote (so I can refer to the meeting minutes by going through the calendar invite).
Other wish list is the Notes - in outlook web access. Doesn't provide the capabilities like the outlook client.30 votesThanks for the feedback on this idea. We are actively working on a solution here and plan to have it available shortly. Please stay tuned…

Add back Open Calendar option
In the old OWA you could add a colleague's calendar by right clicking a calendar group and then selecting "Open Calendar". This would allow you to search for your colleague and then add their calendar to your calendar group in the sidebar. This is an integral feature for team based, global companies in order to keep track of your colleagues' time and location.
9 votesThanks for your feedback. The ability to add calendar from directory is in the OWA Beta. Click on the “discover calendars” link in the left panel of the calendar. In the discover calendars dialog, select import calendar from directory.

WebEx and Office 365
On the Desktop version of Outlook, I had the Cisco WebEx Productivity Toolkit that made it easy to create an Outlook Calendar meeting/invite and then add my WebEx meeting to the invite. This created the meeting in WebEx for me and added all the WebEx info to the meeting invite. Is there way to have that in the Office 365?

calendar pop up reminders
Can we get a pop up reminder for calendar events that shows up on desktop even when the browser is minimized? I use OL in my browser and I miss meetings because I'm never getting notifications.

Add custom category colors
Ability to add custom colors (via hex#, RGB, CMYK, etc.) for categories.
It would be very beneficial for me when planning out my week using the calendar. There are 10 colors of various pastels (top two rows), a row of 5 greys, and 10 colors of various jewel-tones (bottom two rows) to choose from. I've got 20+ different projects I'd like to be able to plan ahead for and also be able to see clearly when glancing at my calendar. Would be tremendous help with planning and project management, as well as being able to quickly re-prioritize.

Editing existing Calendar entries
I think you should be able to click on any calendar entry in order to edit them regardless of how you set them - it just feels a lot more intuitive and I was able to do this before the recent changes, it used to give me an option i.e. "open only this occurrence" or "open all occurrences" . When I try to do this now my screen just jumps up rapidly!

Calendar list: select instead of show/hide, set a default calendar
Are we alone in selecting different calendars more often than we show and hide them? If not, then there should be an easier way to select what calendar to post new events to.
Suggestion:
-A single click in the calendar list would select the calendar as the active for new events
-The show/hide should move to the right click contextAlternatively:
-Clicking on the name for show/hide
-Click on the circle for selecting the calendar as activeRight now you have to first hide your primary calendar, then double/single click on another (visible/hidden) calendar to use it as the default…

Additional availability in Outlook Calendar
We all know and love putting OUT OF OFFICE as an all day event when we will be out of the office. The best part is that it changes your availability on your calendar to out of office. My idea; we need the opposite. When we are working outside our normal hours that are set within Outlook, we need to be able to add additional availability.
