New Features & Updates
Space Reservation
| Features | Description |
|---|---|
| Mandatory Business Services
Technical Info: | The Mandatory Business Services feature enables administrators to enforce the selection of specific services during the checkpoint configuration process. This requirement ensures that critical operational tasks are never bypassed during data entry or workflow transitions. By designating services as compulsory, the system maintains data integrity and guarantees that all necessary business protocols are followed before a user proceeds to the next stage. This automation reduces the risk of human error and ensures comprehensive reporting for every completed checkpoint.
Key Enhancements
|
| 45-Minute Reservation Duration
Technical Info: | The platform now includes a 45-minute duration option within global reservation settings and resource configurations. This update allows users to select or modify this specific time interval during both the initial creation and subsequent editing of bookings. Administrators can establish this duration as a standardized baseline across the system. Once configured, all reservation panels automatically update to reflect the new default value to ensure a seamless scheduling experience for all participants.
Key Enhancements
|
| Favorites Banner & Default View for “At the Office”
Technical Info:
| This release elevates Colleague Connect by introducing guided onboarding and persistent personalization in the “At the Office” widget. Users are now prompted to add key colleagues when no favorites are configured and can define whether they want to view all employees or only their favorites by default—creating a clearer, more relevant daily experience.
Key Enhancements
|
Platform
| Features | Description |
|---|---|
| AI Company Image Prompt
Technical Info: | AI-generated corporate images can be generic and inconsistent with brand identity. This feature allows administrators to create a master brand prompt including colors, style, and design guidelines that automatically applies to all AI image requests, ensuring consistent, on brand visuals without manual adjustments.
