Attributes for 'all-day' personal spaces

Attributes for 'all-day' personal spaces are grouped in 'sections' that define the type of attribute.

About attribute 'sections'

Attributes for 'all-day' personal spaces can be grouped into ‘sections’, such as monitors or docking stations, and each section contains the list of attributes of that type that can be selected when searching for a suitable space to book. A section is set for either multi-select or single-select, depending on the type of attributes the section contains. 

Attributes are added to your workspace types and are then selectable when creating personal space resources for different workspace types.

 

For example: A workspace type of ‘Desks’ might include different docking station models, but only one model is installed for each personal space resource, so these are added to a single-select section called ‘Docking stations’. The same personal space might provide both a height-adjustable desk and a high stool, so these are added to a multi-select section called ‘Desk options’.

When you create a personal space resource and set the workspace type as ‘Desks’, the ‘Docking stations’ and ‘Desk options’ sections are displayed, allowing you to select precisely the attributes the personal space resource offers.example-attributes-and-sections_v2.png

Sections: Attributes are grouped into 'sections'. For example, sections for personal spaces can be types of docking stations or monitor configurations (dual or single). Sections are set to either multi-select or single select, as appropriate for the type of attributes it contains and whether you want users to be able to request just one or many.

  1. Click the Sections tab and click Add section, or click Edit to amend an existing section.

  2. Enter a name for the Section and choose either Allows multi-select or Single select only.

Allows multi-select: Select to enable more than one attribute in a section to be set for an individual personal space resource, for example, a desk might include both a height-adjustable desk and a high stool.

Single-select only: Select to ensure only one attribute in the section can be set for a personal space resource. For example, only one type of docking station or one size of monitor might be provided on a desk.

When editing a section, you cannot switch between multi-select and single-select if there are attributes assigned to the section.

  1. Click Save and continue adding Sections as needed.
  2. When your Sections are created, click the Attributes tab.
  3. Click Add attribute to start creating attributes.
  4. Enter a name for the attribute and select the appropriate section from the Select section drop-down list. Click Save and continue adding attributes as needed.
