Written By Natalia Povrozniak (Administrator)

Updated at September 24th, 2024

What's new

  • We've introduced an option to view space guides or safety instructions that are attached to a space as additional information.
  • Expanded bookings in series, where Recurring bookings were previously available, with Multiple bookings without any pattern.
  • Added the Tags feature for booking records.
  • The Single Booking page can be turned off for an organisation.
  • Added an option to select the default System Filter under Settings > Workplace Preferences > SEARCH RESULTS in case the filter has been set up for the role and that role has access to OneLens 360 too.
  • Added the Notes feature for visitors that only the host and the operational team will see.
  • You can add a branded logo to IBSS Hub apps.

What's changed

  • We've changed the look of the booking details page when creating or editing a single booking. Date and time have a separate view card now, and the availability check is enabled for the bookings that require additional setup and reset activities.
  • Separated permission to view who's booked next to you on the map from viewing the Find a colleague page.
  • Added tooltips throughout.
  • Booking confirmation screens now have a new quick link to add tags to your booking and conveniently lists all bookings in a series of recurring or multiple bookings for the reference and quicker access to editing.
  • We've increased the number of visitors that are pulled from the system in one go from 200 to 300 to allow for easier management of large groups.
  • Removed unnecessary visitor approval call if the user who creates the visit already has necessary permissions.
  • Added a new Continue editing button to the booking confirmation screen.

Known issues

  • If the user doesn't have permission to book unlimited spaces and makes a linked space booking, it is possible that this booking is not counted towards the bookings a user is allowed to make. This means that some people may be able to book a desk, a single room, and a linked room all at the same time.
  • If the user has also OneLens 360 permissions and wants to manage their linked spaces bookings or booking with changed layout along with their corresponding setup and reset time bookings, for now, it is enabled in OneLens 360 only.
  • On the Schedule View page, when manually changing the date, the app will crash. Use the Jump to Today button and calendar picker to continue working with Flex.
  • After you've saved your default filter for a certain building in Settings, it isn't shown as saved when you select the same building.
  • You cannot edit a booking of a single space to a booking of linked spaces or a booking with a different layout because such bookings require a setup and reset time slots before and after the meeting and they are not automatically added for now. Delete your current booking and create a new one with layout or linked space instead.
  • If the user who has the permission to book on behalf of someone else has created a booking on behalf of a visitor, and then tries to edit this visitor booking to be at the same time as his own other existing booking, the system will not allow this and show an error. If the two bookings for the visitor and for self are created initially for the same time, this works fine.
  • Linked space bookings are not reflected on the space card when user views that space in the map view.
