When I make a reservation from 9:00 to 10:00, room finder show me all rooms available from 9:00, but also rooms busy from 9:45 will show as available. So if I chose a room which is busy from 9:45 my reservation is declined. Is there any way I can filter out all rooms that are busy within the our my reservation is made for?

    Hi @Toril Kagnes ,
    You could use the Scheduling Assistant to order meetings.

    @Jame Xu-MSFT

    I guess this is part of our problem: "Room Finder problems with meetings that aren't in 30-minute intervals". https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/room-finder-problems-with-meetings-that-aren-t-in-30-minute-intervals-d6b2e9d6-0ceb-0b66-b142-1dc6793ee653

    Thank you for your support on this issue
