Space allocations are useful when a workspace needs to be assigned to the same user regularly, without requiring them to create individual bookings.
Who can manage space allocations?
Managers can:
Create space allocations for users
Assign spaces on selected days of the week
View and manage existing allocations
Edit or reassign allocations
Manage multiple allocations from one place
Use Auto-assign to help with larger allocation setups
End users cannot create space allocations themselves.
They can, however, view spaces allocated to them and release an allocated space for a specific day when they do not plan to use it.
Managing Space Allocations
Space allocations are managed from the dedicated Space allocations page in Building management.
Go to:
Building management → Space allocations
From this page, managers can view users and spaces and manage their allocations centrally instead of opening and configuring individual spaces.
The page provides tools for searching, filtering, assigning, and reviewing allocations across the selected building.
Creating and managing space allocations
From Space allocations, managers can assign available spaces to users and define the days on which each allocation applies.
The page displays:
Users available for allocation
Assigned and unassigned users
Available spaces
Existing space allocations
Days of the week associated with each allocation
To assign a user to a space:
Find the user in the people panel on the left.
Find the required space in the space list.
Drag the user onto the space.
Select the days of the week when the allocation should apply.
Repeat the process for any additional users or spaces.
Click Save changes to apply the changes.
You can use the available search and filter options to find specific users or spaces more easily.
Finding assigned and unassigned users
The people panel on the left side of the Space allocations page provides three views:
All — displays all available users
Unassigned — displays users who do not currently have a space allocation
Assigned — displays users who already have a space allocation
You can also use Search people to find a specific user.
This makes it easier to identify users who still need to be assigned a workspace.
Filtering spaces
Managers can use the controls at the top of the Space allocations page to narrow down the spaces displayed.
Available options include:
Search for spaces or people
Filter by space type
Filter by space group
Filter by department
The page also shows the number of spaces displayed and how many of them currently have allocations.
Bulk Space Allocation Management
The Space allocations page allows managers to work with multiple users and spaces from a single view.
Instead of configuring allocations individually within each space, managers can use drag and drop to assign users directly to the required spaces.
Existing assignments are displayed next to each space together with the applicable days of the week, making it easier to review and adjust multiple allocations.
For larger allocation setups, managers can also use Auto-assign.
Using Auto-assign
The Auto-assign functionality helps managers assign users to available spaces when working with larger numbers of users and workspaces.
Use the available filters to define the relevant users and spaces, then select Auto-assign.
Review the proposed allocations and make any required adjustments before clicking Save changes.
Viewing Space Allocations
For Managers / Admins
Go to:
Building management → Space allocations
Here, managers can see users and their current space allocations.
Existing allocations show:
The assigned user
The allocated space
The days of the week when the allocation applies
Managers can use the search and filtering options to locate specific users or spaces and adjust allocations as required.
For End Users
Users can see spaces that have been allocated to them in the Spaceti mobile or web application.
Allocated spaces are also visible on the map.
Users can select an allocated space to see its details, including the relevant space and allocation information.
Releasing an allocated space for a specific day
If a user does not plan to use their allocated space on a particular day, they can release it for that day.
Releasing the space:
Applies only to the selected date
Does not remove the recurring space allocation
Makes the workspace available for other users
We recommend releasing an allocated space when it is not required so that the workspace can be used by someone else.
Editing or removing space allocations
Managers can manage existing allocations from:
Building management → Space allocations
From the Space allocations page, managers can adjust existing assignments or the days on which an allocation applies.
After making changes, click Save changes to apply them.
For recurring allocations, changing an individual day does not require the allocation to be configured again directly within the space.
Summary
Managers
Use Building management → Space allocations to create, view, and manage space allocations.
The dedicated Space allocations page provides centralized management of users and spaces and supports:
Drag-and-drop assignment
Assigned and unassigned user views
User and space search
Space and department filtering
Day-of-week allocation
Auto-assign
Management of multiple allocations from a single page
Users
Users can view spaces allocated to them and release an allocated space for a specific day when they do not need it.
Releasing a space for one day does not remove the recurring space allocation.
