After starting the meeting, the organizer or co-organizer must perform a few steps before entering the meeting workspace.
If there is one or more co-organizers in addition to the organizer, all of these users have the option of starting the meeting. If more than one of these users click Start or Join before the meeting has started, they all have the option of completing the following steps. The meeting is started by the first user to complete the steps.
The option to edit the agenda is only offered if an agenda was not created for the meeting prior to starting it.
Do one of the following:
Click Edit Agenda to launch the agenda editor and enter an agenda for the meeting. For more information, see "Creating an agenda".
Click Start Meeting to launch the meeting anyway. If there was no agenda, MeetingBooster will insert an agenda with one topic only, with the same name as the meeting.
Click Cancel to cancel the meeting.
Check that the attendees required for the meeting are present. A green dot next to an attendee's name means that the attendee has logged on to MeetingBooster and has joined the meeting. A black icon next to an attendee's name means that the attendee is a guest.
If an attendee has not logged on to MeetingBooster but is nevertheless participating in the meeting (because he or she has physically joined another attendee, sharing the same computer, or is participating in some other way), you can select the check box next to the attendee's name to indicate that he or she is participating. Attendees who are not online cannot be made hosts or note takers.
Select a different note taker and host if required.
(Optional) Click + Attendee or + Guest to add more attendees to the meeting.
If more attendees are added, they will receive an email invitation following the next synchronization if you are using an email plug-in. Otherwise, users invited can join the meeting from the MeetingBooster site. For more information, see "Joining a meeting". Guests receive an email invitation immediately.
Click Cancel to cancel the meeting, or click Next.
If there are no tasks related to the meeting, there will be a Start Meeting button instead of a Next button.
The option to review tasks is only offered if tasks have been created for the meeting.
Review the tasks created for the meeting.
Click Topic or Owner to display tasks by topic or owner.
Select the Complete check box next to a task if the task has been completed.
The meeting may be started even though a task has not been completed but the task will still be open in MeetingBooster.
If the task owner has set the task completion status to 100%, the task will be shown as complete. For more information on changing task status, see "Editing tasks".
Click Back to go back and re-edit the attendee roster, or click Start Meeting.
