Your office locations can be managed by going to "Company admin," then "Settings," and selecting "Locations." From there you will see the "Company HQ" tab.

Adding a New Office Location

To add a new office location, select "+ Add new HQ" and fill out all details.

Add general details including:

  • Photos of the building by selecting the "+" under "Company HQ" in the screenshot above

  • Your office name, which will be the name that your employees see when they access HQ to book desks/meeting rooms

  • The office address, which will populate from Google when you start typing it

  • Operating days, which you can click to select

  • Working hours which will populate the times that your employees have available to book

  • General amenities of the office that you can select from a dropdown menu

  • Check-in and parking instructions that will be included in the arrival guide that your employees receive after booking

  • Wifi details, also included in the arrival guide

  • An HQ contact email and phone number, also included in the arrival guide

  • And the number of floors with the ability to upload a floor plan for each floor. We recommend using a PDF for this upload.

    • You can also choose to "Add HQs without floor plans" if you prefer.

Building an office with floor plans

If you've chosen to include a floor plan, once you select the "Next" button, you will be taken to an image of the floor plan to add desks, private offices, and meeting rooms:

Select "Edit floor" and you will see three options appear at the bottom of the screen:

  • "Add common area desks"

  • "Add meeting rooms"

  • "Add private offices"

To add common area desks, select that option and click the desks on the floor plan:

You can then add pictures and a name for the desk(s), select "Available for all" or assign the desk(s) to a user or a department which will dictate who will be able to book that desk, and then select the amenities for that specific desk(s) from the dropdown menu:

You can repeat these steps to "Add meeting rooms" and "Add private offices."

Building an office without floor plans

To build an office without a floor plan, scroll to the bottom after selecting "+ Add new HQ" and choose "Add HQs without floor plans" as shown here:

Enter the address and number of meeting rooms your office has and select next:

When you select "Next," you will be taken to the "HQ details" page:

Here, you can add the general details of your office locations as described above. You will notice the addition of "Number of seats" which will be the number of common desks available to book.

Select the Meeting rooms from the tabs at the top to add photos, room names, number of seats, and amenities of each of the meeting rooms:

You can then connect your Google calendar for each meeting room by selecting the "Connect" option next to the meeting room name:

Select "Done" and your HQ will be created without a floor plan!

Editing an existing office location in HQ

Select the pencil icon next to the office's name to edit an office location.

From here, you have two options for editing:

  1. Select the pencil icon next to the office's name to edit the general details of the office location:

  2. Select "Edit floor" to edit the configuration of desks, private offices, and meeting rooms:

Deleting Office Locations

To remove an office location, select the trashcan icon that appears when you select the down arrow next to the office listing you would like to remove:

Overriding Seat Restrictions

If someone has the role of an "Admin" or a "Booker" they can override the seat assignments, and book seats that are assigned for themselves or on behalf of someone else.

If all seats are unavailable, due to assignments, Admins and Bookers can also book one of these desks.

Simple select the seat that you wish to book, even if it is categorized as "assigned" and select book.

There will be a notification that alerts you that you are booking over an assigned seat.

This override functionality is available within web, mobile app and slack.
