Change Your Status

Your presence status is determined by your calendar and activity. For example, when you’re in a scheduled meeting or on a call, your status shows as Busy. If you don’t use your computer for a certain period of time (as determined by the Status options in Lync), your status changes to Away.
You can also change your status manually. This might be handy if, for example, you and a colleague start an impromptu meeting in your office or you have a deadline and don’t want to be disturbed.

2. On the My Status screen, perform one of the following:

If you want to let others know you’re in a meeting, on a call, or otherwise engaged, select Busy.
If you’re stepping away just for a few moments, select Be Right Back.
If you want it to look like you’re unavailable, select Away.
If you want Lync to reset your status based on your calendar and activity, select Reset Status.
Note:
The check mark indicates your current status.
