Envoy's Parking functionality is currently in Beta. To join, contact [email protected].
Overview
Need a better way to manage parking? Envoy Workplace allows employees to reserve parking spaces through the map. By including parking in your workplace map, you can reduce confusion and ensure every part of the workday, starting with arrival, runs smoothly.
Setting up Parking
Add a floor with a Parking map
To set up parking, you'll need to have a map of your available parking spaces.
Navigate to Maps > Live Map, then click Edit map.
Click Create a new floor. (If you already have a floor created, click the floor name dropdown to see this option). Give your floor a name and upload your map, then click Create.
✨Tip: It's a good idea to include words like "Parking" or "Garage" in your floor name so employees know what to expect on the map✨
Placing parking spots is just like placing desks. Navigate to + Add resources, then select Parking.
Once you place a spot, a parking details panel will open on the right-hand side. Here, you can permanently assign employees and assign amenities.
After placing your parking spots or making changes, be sure to click Save. This publishes any changes to the Live map.
Parking settings
Adding parking amenities
If your parking spaces offer different amenities or restrictions, it's important to add them to your Envoy map to help employees pick the best spot. Some examples of amenities include: Compact-Only, EV Charging, Accessible, and Covered parking.
Navigate to Resources > All resource types, then click the gear ⚙️ next to Parking spots.
Next to Amenities, click Add amenity.
Click Create after naming your amenity. Amenities must be added one at a time.
Once created, you can add the amenity to applicable spots via the map editor. There is no limit to how many amenities can be added to a single spot.
Reservation settings
Just like desks, you can customize how far in advance employees can reserve their parking spot. This limit is not connected to your desk booking settings.
Navigate to Resources > All resource types, then click the gear ⚙️ next to Parking spots.
Under Reservation settings, locate Advanced booking limit. Here, you can use the dropdown to select from the following: Today only, Today & tomorrow, 1 up to 12 weeks in advance, or As far as possible.
Once changed, click Save to apply.
