Home Page Basics

Dashboard widgets provide quick access to key information and features on your home page. The widgets you see depend on your company’s configuration. In most cases, you’ll have a mix of map-based widgets, seat or schedule widgets, and company bulletins or reservation widgets.

Below is an example of a typical home dashboard that includes:

  • Room Reservation Status
  • Seat Status
  • Room Reservations
  • Seat Assignment
  • Favorite Resources
  • Company Bulletin

These widgets give you a snapshot of seat and room availability, your current resource assignments, upcoming reservations, and any company announcements.

💡 Want to know what each widget does? Check out our article What are the Home Dashboard widgets in Maptician? for detailed descriptions of every widget and how to use them.

Once opened, you can see who is assigned to be in-office in real time. Assigned seats with schedules will have other's profile pictures, if available. Reservable seats will only have someone's profile picture if reserved in real-time.

Viewing future data on the map will allow you to see who is scheduled to be in the office on that date.

  2. Select Set to use that date and time view on the map.

The map will update to show you who is scheduled to be in the office for that date and time. Scheduled reservations will also appear for the selected date and time. Click on a user's photo in the map to view their profile information and assigned seat schedule.
