“Reservation for” allows to make a reservation on behalf of someone else, which technically translates into changing the reservation response on the booking in respective IWMS. When booking on behalf of someone else, the reservation scope restrictions (locations, zones) will be applied based on the selected reservation responsible.

For each object, you can add specific notes, like dietary requirements.
For each service, you can add a separate start time, as you might want to receive your lunch only at midday even if the reservation starts in the morning.
Reservation Confirmation
In the Reservation Confirmation screen, you’ll have the possibility to share your reservation with your colleagues. They will see this appear in their GO - Notification center.
Confirmation of Recurring Reservations
When you create a recurring reservation, you’ll first receive the notification that your recurring reservation has been submitted.
While Workplace is creating these reservations in the background, you can continue your work!
Once Workplace has tried to create all reservations, you’ll receive another notification, which will list if it was possible to book all occurrences, or for those that there was an issue. In case it was not possible to book an occurrence, Workplace will provide the option to
select another time slot
select another location
Once a reservation is confirmed, it will appear in GO - My Reservations.
