Click on the location where you want to set up a hot desk booking system. (note that you can have multiple locations).

Scroll down to "Spaces", click Space Types, and then Add Space Types to create a Hot Desk Office inside your location.

A "Space Type" is any space inside your location or facility, such as a working office, cafeteria, meeting room, etc.

Type the name and description and click Add to create the space type.

Once you create the Hot Desk Space Type, click the Back Arrow. After, click Add Space.

Type the name and description, and pick the space type. Once ready, click Add.

Repeat the process for how many hot desks you have inside the Hot Desk Office Space.

Every space (example: Hot Desk #1) is a desk an employee can book. If you have 5 bookable hot desks, you'll create 5. If you have 10 bookable hot desks, you'll create 10.

The employee must log in to the Lobbytrack Employee App with their Lobbytrack account.

Click the Bookings section inside the app.

In the app, you have 3 options:

1. Book a hot desk by clicking Book a Space.

2. Manage already booked hot desks by clicking Manage Bookings.

3. Check available hot desks by clicking Check Space Availability.

After clicking Book a Space, select the location, pick "Hot Desk" as the "Space Type", pick the starting and ending date and time. You can also add a memo. Finally, click Next at the bottom.

Select your hotdesk. You can also search by typing the hot desk's name.
