Calendar administrators can now set the default event duration to any number of minutes, rather than choosing from preselected intervals. Supported values are 5 to 600 minutes.
For organizations that work with specific time increments, this can be very helpful. For example, a Toastmasters group can schedule each speech session to be precisely 7 minutes; professionals who track billable hours in specific increments can adjust event duration accordingly.
How to set the default event duration:
Note: You can change the default event duration back and forth for more efficiency. For example, if you need to create a large number of 7-minute speaking slots or 20-minute meetings, switch to a manual event duration so it's faster to add these specific events to the calendar. Then switch back to automatic event duration once the events are created.
