Room w/i Room

Introduction

In an office environment, or in any other form of a public space, there might be a need to be able to book an entire office area or an entire public space including all the smaller meeting rooms that exist within these offices and spaces.

Humly's solution to this is rooms within a room, Room w/i Room.

Room w/i Room is supported in Humly Control Panel 1.7 and later and can be used with M365, Exchange 2010-2019, Google Workspace, Domino or Standalone as booking system.

The rooms must exist in Humly Control Panel and be assigned to a structure, to be able to create a Room w/i Room. It's also recommended to name these rooms in a way that it's easy for the end user to understand that it is a parent room or child room

  1. Add the SMTP address for the parent room and click "+" button to add
