WPM-WPE Integration

The steps below describe the steps needed to integrate WPM (Workplace Management) and WPE (Workplace Experience).

Note

Own employees (= users) should not yet be imported via the initialization wizard. Instead, this data should be imported after starting the module Activation“Workplace Experience: Reservations”. Reason for this is that the setting to automatically add new user to the External App is set in the process of running the module Activation for Workplace Experience: Reservations. Any users created before that are not automatically added and need to be added manually

...

  • These will then need to be manually added to the External App*.
    This is explained in the Step “Configuration of the external app“ later in this article.

  • Also, Check if the building and area hierarchy is correct, the mandatory building and area hierarchy is described in the following Module activation article: Mandatory hierarchy for buildings and areas.

Linking regimes

Rules to keep in mind:

  • Linking a regime is optional. If no regime is created reservations can be made 24/7.

  • Do not add a regime without availability. Make sure always at least one availability is added. See left screenshot.

  • Wen you want to use the option for ‘Multi day booking’ in the Workplace App you cannot have a regime. A regime will block multi day bookings.

  • It is optional to configure a deviating regime for a building or a specific area.

    • Note: when the tenant has buildings in countries that are in different timezones you MUST use regimes, because the regime allows you to set a timezone that differs from the timezone that you set in the client settings.

For all information about creating an linking regimes: Managing regimes .
