First time setting up an office with Robin? You're in exactly the right place. Follow this checklist and you'll be up and running in no time.
Build & customize your office building
Before jumping in, do you have multiple office locations to set up and manage? Appoint dedicated Office Admins in Robin to delegate office location-specific tasks. [Enterprise only]
-
[All plans] During the onboarding process, Robin will prompt you to add your building. Then you can add more building details later (e.g., working hours, timezone, and address).
-
[All plans] During the onboarding process, Robin will prompt you to add floors to your building and submit floor plans to be converted to Robin maps for each floor.

Pro tip: Turn on the abandoned meeting & desk protection policies. These allow desk & meeting space reservations to be automatically canceled if no one checks in by a certain time. This helps free up office resources for others to use and gives office managers a better understanding of office utilization.
