🧭 Navigate to Add a Company Office

  1. Log in as a Company Admin.

  2. Open your Profile dropdown.

  3. Select Company Admin > Settings.

  4. In the left-hand navigation, click Company Offices.

Depending on your setup, you’ll either see:

  • A large Add Your Company Office box (if you have no offices yet), or

  • A purple “Add New Office” button in the top right (if offices already exist).

Click the option to begin creating your new office.


🏙️ General Office Details

Upon starting, you’ll enter the core details of your office:

📸 Office Image

Upload a photo of your company office.

🏷️ Name & Address

  • Add your office name

  • Enter the address

  • Adjust the displayed address (e.g., add a suite number)

📅 Operating Days

By default, Monday–Friday are selected.
You can enable Saturday and Sunday as additional operating days.

⏰ Working Hours

Set the hours the office is open and available for booking.

🔄 Hybrid Policy

If your team has RTO expectations, set how many days per week employees are expected onsite.
(This powers data in occupancy reporting.)

⏳ Time Control

Restrict how far in advance employees can book.

  • Example: limit standard users to 10 weeks in advance

  • Admins and Bookers can override this setting

Auto Space Release

Automatically free up desks or rooms if employees don’t check in.

You can configure:

  • Desks, Rooms, or both

  • Partial-day release → set minutes after booking start

  • Full-day release → set a time-of-day for automatic release

Allow On-Site Bookings

Toggle this on if employees can check in on-site without selecting a specific desk or resource.
Great for flexible seating or common areas.

🧰 General Amenities

Select amenities available throughout the entire office (Wi-Fi, restrooms, coffee, microwave, etc.)

🅿️ Check-In & Parking Instructions

Provide instructions for:

  • Entering the building

  • Parking rules

  • Elevator or access notes

This information is included in booking email.

📶 Wi-Fi Details

Add your Wi-Fi network name and password to help employees connect quickly upon arrival.

📩 Office Contact

Add the email and phone number of someone employees can reach out to (often the office manager).


🗺️ Create Floors & Upload Floor Plans

Now, you’ll build out the structure of your space:

➕ Add Floors

  • Enter the floor number

  • Upload a PDF floor plan (required for tagging)

  • Add as many floors as needed

Actions available:

  • Replace a floor plan with the ✔️ icon

  • Delete a floor with the 🗑️ icon

  • Create an office without a floor plan by specifying the address and number of meeting rooms

Click Next when ready.


🏷️ Tag Your Floor Plan

This step builds the bookable spaces and points of interest employees will see.

📍 Adding Points of Interest

POIs include:

  • Break room

  • Fire extinguisher

  • Emergency exit
