You can organize a cluttered schedule by creating separate calendars, view shared calendars, or share your calendar with someone else.
Do any of the following:
Track two or more separate schedules in your own calendar
Keep your work and personal events separate by using two separate calendars in Outlook. Each calendar operates independently, but you can show the events from both calendars simultaneously.
Important: If you create a new calendar under your Exchange calendar, the new calendar will also sync with the Exchange server. However, if you create a meeting on the new Exchange calendar, responses to this meeting aren't counted.

To help protect your privacy, put private items in a separate, non-shared address book, calendar, or mail folder.
