The Edit Map button in Tactic allows you to make bulk edits to desks, meeting rooms, and other resources on the interactive office map.
Below is a step-by-step guide on how to use the Edit Map button:
From the interactive map, select the Map Edit mode button located in the top-right corner of the screen.
Note: You must be an admin to see this option.Once in Map Edit mode, select the resources you want to edit. For example, you can select all desks in a specific area or all conference rooms on a particular floor.
-
Next, you can make bulk changes to the selected resources. For example, you can require admin approval for all reservations, mark all resources as unavailable, or add custom restrictions.
In the General tab, you can also manage the basic details of the resource. Here you can:
- Update the resource name.
- Add amenities.
- Add a description. This description will be shown to users when they are reserving the desk, if you want to share important information about the space.
In the Hours tab, you can set the availability hours for the resource. You can also restrict access on specific days or for a defined period of time, such as a single week or selected dates.
-
In the Assignments tab, you control who can reserve the resource.
- With Open Access, anyone can reserve the desk.
- With Restricted Access, you can limit reservations to a specific group or team.
To restrict access:
- Select Restricted Access;
- Click Add Assignment;
- Choose a Primary Assignment Group;
- Select the users or teams who should have access.
You can also configure Anchor Days, which allow desks to be assigned to users or teams on specific days of the week, instead of a continuous assignment. For more information about Anchor Days, you can refer to this article: How to Set Up Anchor Days
There is also the Priority Booking option. This allows a primary group to have priority access to the resource. If no reservations are made by the primary group by a specific day or time, access can automatically open to a secondary group.
