The Outlook "New Teams Meeting" button should respect the "End appointments and meetings early" setting
"End appointments and meetings early" is a new but very useful setting that lightly enforces good meeting discipline. It works for the regular "New Appointment" and "New Meeting" buttons, but not for the "New Teams Meeting" button. This should be fixed so all create calendar buttons exhibit the same useful behaviour.

Yes, we need this to work - especially during Covid-19 when almost all meetings are done by Teams.

Please make this 'end early/start late' functionality available when booking Teams meetings. Would be great to have!

Microsoft is one of those "right arm doesn't know what the left one's doing" organisations isn't it?

we just enabled this on outlook - disappointing to see that the setting does not apply / exist in Teams - we're trying to enable staff to build breaks into their day and encouraging use of Teams so we really need this option to be available.

This seems like a bug more than an intended design - we should have meeting default times centrally managed so that its the same no matter where you are creating the meeting - Outlook client, Outlook Mobile, Outlook web, Teams client, Teams Mobile, etc.

Please add this as is available in outlook which is our default client with the teams addin. In the interests of Mental health can ensure that staff can take a 5 minute break between video calls.

I fully agree - it seems rather illogical and difficult to explain to end users - a meeting is a meeting no matter what

Scheduling a meeting from Teams client should repect the global calendar settings to shorten the default meeting length

There are so many meetings with a remote workforce that this feature is needed more than ever. Help people manage their time by implementing this change

Would be great if this setting was possibly to adjust for all users, as well as the personal setting gets into all interfaces (outlook, web mail, teams, phone)

The sooner this functionality could be enabled, the better. What is the status of this request? Is it on anyone's to-do list? Thanks
