Personal space resources

 

A personal space is a space used by a single person. For example, a desk, office, parking space, or locker. Each personal space resource must be assigned to a group to manage booking rules and permissions, and can be assigned as a workspace type.

Personal space resources are configured as either an 'all-day' personal space that can be booked for whole or half-days (depending on your organization's global settings) or as an 'hourly' personal space, bookable for shorter periods as defined by the Group. The resource type cannot be changed when set for a particular resource.
