Closing and opening personal spaces

Personal spaces can be closed indefinitely and opened again, directly from the floor plan. Alternatively, from Resource Administration, spaces can be closed for a specified period and cleaning can also be scheduled. You can also close all workspaces in a Location or Floor, or in a Zone.

*You cannot close or open resources if a closure period is already set for the Location, Floor, or Zone where the resource is located. Learn more about the closure rule in Closing resources.

Personal spaces that are closed or awaiting cleaning are not listed in search results and if Condeco desk booking screens are installed, they will clearly display ‘Closed’ or ‘Awaiting Cleaning’ with a red or blue light ring.

!When a personal space is assigned to a user as either a Fixed or Flexi space and is closed from the floor plan, the space must be reassigned to the user when it is reopened, otherwise, the space appears as available to book and the assigned user’s working status remains as ‘Working remotely’. To reassign the user, on the Resource Admin page for the personal space, first set the space as Bookable and save the change, then set the personal space back to Fixed or Flexi as required, and set the period. The originally assigned user’s name is entered automatically.
