Change your presence status in Skype for Business
Your presence information is a quick way for other people to see your availability status. Presence is automatically set based on your Outlook calendar, but you can change it manually if you want to.
As an example, if you have a meeting currently scheduled in Outlook, your status appears as “In a meeting” in Skype for Business. When you’re in a Skype for Business audio or video call, your presence indicator appears red, as Busy, and your status is updated to “In a call.”
You can also manually set your presence status to include details you want others to see. Your presence can also include a personal note that appears in your Contacts list and on your contact card. This gives people more information about what you’re up to.
Change your presence status
Click the status menu drop-down arrow below your name on the Skype for Business main window, and then click the status you want to show other people.
To revert from the status you set and have Skype for Business automatically update your status, click the status menu and then click Reset Status.
Choose the appropriate status
Make sure you set your status accurately. The following table describes each presence status that other people may see for you, what each status means, and which ones you can set yourself.
Tip: The presence statuses are pre-set in Skype for Business, which means you can’t create a custom status, but you can give your contacts more details about where you are or what you’re doing by adding a personal note. See the next section for details.

Add or remove a personal note
Type a personal note, such as “Working from home,” at the top of your Skype for Business main window, to share current details about your status. The note will appear with your contact card. Change the note as often as you like.
To add a personal note
In the Skype for Business main window, click the note box above your name, and then type a note, such as “Working from home” or “Working on a deadline, please IM instead of stopping by.”
To remove your personal note
Click the note box above your name, and, on your keyboard, press BackSpace, and then press Enter. The text in the box reverts to the default message, “What’s happening today?”
Turn your out-of-office notification on or off
If your Skype for Business account is synchronized to your Outlook calendar, an out-of-office message displays as your personal note in Skype for Business whenever you turn on the out-of-office notification in Outlook. So, for example, when you’re going to be on vacation, you might set up your out-of-office notification in Outlook indicating that you’re on vacation (and sharing any relevant information, such as whether you’ll be checking email and who your backup is). This notification is published in your contact card and other contact listings that are displayed to your contacts in Skype for Business.
Important: When you return from vacation, remember to turn off the out-of-office notification. You have to go into Outlook to do this. You can’t delete the note from Skype for Business.
To turn on the notification in Outlook
In Outlook, click File > Automatic Replies > Send automatic replies, and then write your out-of-office message and schedule it for display.
To turn off the notification in Outlook and thereby remove the message from your Skype for Business display
In Outlook, click File > Automatic Replies > Turn off. (It can take up to thirty minutes for the note to disappear from your Skype for Business display.)
