Not every setting in Global Resource Settings applies to every resource type. This quick-reference table shows what's supported where, so you don't have to dig through each resource type's settings individually.
Resource Type | Auto-Release | Early Check-In | Repeat Bookings | Manual Check-In | Notes |
Desks | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Supports multi-day bookings in 24/7 buildings |
Private Offices | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Behaves like desks — single user at a time |
Rooms | Yes | Yes | No | Yes | Managed via calendar integration (Google/Outlook) |
Pods | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Capacity-based; no attendee invitations |
Onsite | No | Yes | Yes | Yes | Doesn't reserve a specific space, so there's nothing to auto-release |
Lockers | No | Yes | Yes | Yes | Intended for longer-term or repeat storage bookings |
Parking (Advanced) | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Only applies when Advanced Parking is enabled (not Basic Parking) |
Key takeaway
Auto-release is not desk-only — it's also available for Rooms, Private Offices, Pods, and Parking (when Advanced Parking is enabled). It is not available for Onsite bookings, or Lockers, since those resource types don't reserve an individually-releasable space in the same way.
Where to configure this
Each resource type is configured independently:
Go to Settings → Resources
Use the left-hand menu to select the resource type (Desks, Rooms, Pods, etc.)
Scroll to the Check In / Check Out section to toggle auto-release, early check-in, and manual check-in for that resource type
Click Save — changes apply to all resources of that type
See the full Global Resource Settings article for details on every available setting per resource type.
