The Tenative part is another party possibly might have to approve the booking. This I know from my previous job as I was the AV Tech as well. Do all rooms show up as Tentative. Has this ever happened before and what has changed since the last time it worked? I could help you just need more history.
Next. Is each room setup as a mailbox? This needs to be in place. To enable a pop up that the room is booked please try this, you have to enable the resource account log in, start outlook and connect to Exchange as the resource. Go to tools, options, Calendar options. resource scheduling and check the first 2 options. (Automatically accept meeting requests and process cancellations and Automatically decline conflicting meeting requests.
Disable the resource account again.
The popup will show up under the following condition.
Create the meeting and book with outlook.

Dear Jodi,
Thank you for your reply and support. regarding your question for point # 3 "Tentative", Yes all rooms show as tentative and we just configured the exchange server, also it takes long time to show the rooms status.
