Microsoft 365 app: Microsoft Places - Configure auto-release for desks

🚨 The Signal: Microsoft Places now allows administrators to configure auto-release for unconfirmed desk reservations. This improves resource availability and reduces 'ghost bookings,' ensuring desks are used efficiently.

The Impact

This feature primarily affects Facilities and IT administrators, with no direct security risk.

• Facilities Managers: Improved desk utilization and reduced 'no-shows.'
• IT Administrators: New configuration options for Microsoft Places.
• End Users: More available desks due to automated release.

The Action

1. Navigate to Microsoft Places admin center.
2. Select 'Desks' configuration.
3. Enable 'Auto-release' for desks.
4. Configure the check-in duration after reservation start time.
