ITS Office Hoteling Spaces

This page describes policies and step-by-step instructions for use of the ITS Office Hoteling Spaces.

Policies: Access to reserve ITS Office Hoteling Spaces is limited to ITS staff only. ITS Staff may reserve up to 90-days in advance, up to 5 active reservations at a time, but are limited to 1 room per reservation. Overlapping reservations are not permitted. Individual reservations cannot exceed 18 hours, however the default reservation start and stop are common business hours (8:30am-5pm) for ease of choosing future dates.

Tips: Use the "Timeline Scheduler" button when navigating resources to see spaces that are blocked or in use when searching for a reservation. If you find a particular desk or space you prefer, consider "Copying" the reservation to save time with subsequent reservations of that same space. The bottom of the page has more information for Edit, Cancel, and Copy Reservations and Reservation Errors.

Reservation Errors

A Resource Type Limit error will occur if you are trying to reserve more than 1 resource/desk at a time, or an overlapping timeframe. Make sure your cart only has 1 resource in it. Or make sure the date/time isn't overlapping an existing reservation you already have scheduled.

Your reservation may return an error message if it's not possible to reserve, the message will provide some additional details why it cannot be saved.
