Set up Book Safe and Distance
Level: System Administrator
When your employees reserve a desk, Book Safe is a setting that can be used to ensure social distancing is in place. Once Book Safe settings are in place and after the desk is reserved, other desks within a given range will be disabled so that other employees cannot reserve them.
Book Safe can be set globally for all your buildings or each individual one.
