Book your Own Desk (Web)

Employees can book any space assigned to them, including primary desks, secondary desks, shared desks, and neighborhood desks. Also, you can book your own desk on a recurring basis.

This is best explained using a few examples:

An Employee with an Assigned Seat can Book a Desk


When you have an assigned seat such as a primary desk, secondary desk, or shared desk you will be able to book your own desk. In this example, you have an assigned seat on the floor and this is the desk you can book.

On the Floor Map, your assigned desk will display with the YOU ARE HERE sign on top of it.

Choose a booking date by clicking on the date range.
