Manage employee reservations

Using the Reservation Overview, workplace managers and reservation desk executives can monitor the reservations created and scheduled for a location. They can also view the reservations they have created on behalf of their employees. They can use the dashboard to track the trend of reservations over a time period.

After an employee submits a reservation for a workplace item for a given date, the reservation is confirmed based on the availability of that item. If the workplace item requires an approval before reservation, the approver receives an approval request in the approval queue.

If the workplace item is unavailable for the specified day or time, the request moves to the Conflicted state. As a workplace manager, you can review the reservations submitted by the employees for that day. You can view the reservations that you created, all the reservations, and the reservations scheduled for that day. For more information, see View or update reservations.

Based on the pending reservations for the items that require approval you can take appropriate actions to complete the reservation. For more information, see Approve a reservation.

Event planner

In the Workplace Central workspace, the Workplace Reservation Event Planner enables you to track your organization's reservations from a single workspace. In the Event planner, using a schedule view, you can view reservation details, optimize reservations by dragging, and manage multiple workplace reservations at a time. You can access the Event planner dashboard with both Reservation planner and Reservation viewer roles. The Event planner provides you with a schedule view of all the reservations requested by the employees and also the reservations that are requested by you. You can access the Event planner both as a reservation planner and a reservation viewer. As a reservation planner, you can manage the reservations on behalf of the employees.

For more information, refer to Event Planner.
