The main calendar function is scheduling events. Events within the company are easy to schedule in seconds, because the scheduler displays each employee's free time.
But there are also meetings with customers and partners who are not users of your Bitrix24.
For such cases, the calendar has the Invite a guest function.

In the Attendees section, click the Change button > select users that will participate in the event.
Click the Invite a guest button.
