Desk Release allows users to free up a desk for someone else’s same-day use. Users can also change their desks the same day by checking out of one desk, and reserving and checking into another.

Super Admins and Desk Booking Admins can configure this feature under Settings > Desk Booking > Enable Desk Release
How Desk Release Works:
Users are able to reserve a desk through multiple channels, including Mobile App, Slack, and the Web Dashboard
After Checking Out of a previously Checked In desk:
That particular desk, if not assigned, is now free for others to reserve
The user who Checked Out is now able to make a second (or third, fourth, etc) booking for a particular day
Additional Notes & Comments:
Making a second reservation through Slack or Microsoft Teams is not currently supported
A user that releases a desk will see each of their reservations under My Reservations for a particular day if they check out of one desk and into another
An admin will only see the second desk a user reserves on their All Reservations and Reservations History table. CSV exports will include each reserved desk for a particular user
