Engage and Serraview


Booking Portfolio Overview Dashboard

Released on September 30th

Designed as a Home dashboard for Engage-focused deployments and roles, the Booking Portfolio Overview Dashboard provides a simple, high-level summary of portfolio and booking statistics. While other booking dashboards present rigorous details to address specific questions, this dashboard shows at a glance your portfolio and booking activity within that context.

For details, refer to Booking Portfolio Overview Dashboard.

Neighborhood Booking Origin Analysis Dashboard

Released on September 30th

This dashboard assists Managers to understand booking patterns at team and neighborhood levels, particularly highlighting cases where people book (via assistance) into team spaces other than their own assigned team areas. This provides an important perspective on booked occupancy vs capacity because cross-neighborhood or team bookings may be hidden in overall statistics.

For details, refer to Neighborhood Booking Origin Analysis Dashboard.

Serraview Insights has a new dashboard for Engage called Bookable Spaces

For Space Planners and Managers, this dashboard provides a detailed picture of the number of bookable spaces available and compares them to the average daily bookings to give a sense of how spaces are utilized. Bookable spaces are broken down by building, floor, neighborhood, and org unit for a more granular view of utilization.
