About workspace selection

If you've enabled the Desks and Spaces and/or Employee Scheduling add-ons, you'll need to activate the workspace selection question before employees can select a workspace during sign in or when booking to come on-site. 

The question can be activated for the following sign in methods:

  • Kiosks
  • Sign In/Out Manager
  • OnLocation Mobile

You can also enable it for scheduling, where employees can book a workspace while scheduling to come on-site with OnLocation Mobile.

If you have enabled the Desks and Spaces and/or Employee Scheduling add-ons for multiple locations, you'll need to activate this question in each location's Sign In/Out Questions. It can't be managed globally.
