In Flex, you can view availability of spaces within your building in a calendar view. This helps to find free slots of a certain space that you want and create a single booking. The timeline starts at the building office hours.
Under Schedule View, use filters to narrow down your search, view details of existing bookings on the selected day in the listed spaces, and view free slots that you can book directly from this page.
View available spaces and existing bookings
By default, you'll see space list of 10 spaces for today's date in your preferred building, floor, and zone. Space list is on the left side of the page. The rest of the page is dedicated to time slots with existing bookings in the selected spaces and free time slots that means that the space is available for booking. Read more about setting your preferences in Flex here: Settings in Flex.
⚠️ You'll see only those spaces that are enabled for you to book. Spaces that have limited permissions for bookings won't be displayed for you.
In the top right corner of the table with the spaces listed, you can use the Sort by: A-Z or Sort by: Z-A filters.
⚠️ Note that the sorting works for the first 50 search results that don't have to be displayed on the page. Sorting also shrinks the list of displayed results back to initial 10 result in the selected alphabetical order. Add 10 more spaces to the list every time you click Load next 10 > at the bottom of the schedule view.
