# Bookings, visitors and tickets in one place

> For office and facility teams Door James bundles daily operations in one Admin Panel: manage bookings and requests, welcome visitors and print badges, process reported defects as tickets, plan cleaning based on real usage and send occupancy reports automatically – configurable per location.

Office management is the role that uses Door James daily. What counts here is not the feature list but the effort per week.

## Key facts

- **Central:** one Admin Panel for all locations
- **Reception:** visitor list, kiosk, badge printing
- **Tickets:** defects with a photo at the asset
- **Reports:** automatically to the people involved

## The real gain: one surface instead of five channels

Daily work in office management consists largely of channel switching: email for room questions, phone for visitors, notes for defects, Excel for occupancy. Every switch costs time and loses information. Door James brings these processes into one surface where each item is attached to the resource it concerns.

## Location autonomy with guardrails

For multi-site organizations the role structure is decisive: a location admin manages their own site, an organization admin all of them. Modules can be activated centrally and filtered regionally – visitor management only where there is a reception desk, for example. That keeps autonomy possible without every branch inventing its own rules.

## From reaction to planning

With a few months of data the role changes: instead of reacting to bottlenecks you can anticipate them. Occupancy reports show which areas are permanently oversubscribed, where no-shows block capacity and on which days cleaning can be reduced.

## How it works

1. **Set up the location** – Create floor plan, areas, zones and assets, set equipment attributes and rules, assign roles.
2. **Run operations** – Approve booking requests, prepare visitors, process defects, block areas during construction.
3. **Evaluate and adjust** – Use occupancy reports to adjust cleaning, opening hours and quotas.

## Who it is for

- **Your weekly routine** – Approve requests, prepare visitors, work through reported defects, set up special arrangements, review reports.
- **What disappears** – Paper lists at reception, Excel occupancy plans, emails to release rooms, questions about parking.
- **What is added** – Maintaining floor plans, assets and rules – after rollout usually a few minutes per week per location.

## Frequently asked questions

### How much ongoing maintenance is it?

After rollout it is mostly changes to the inventory: new assets, refurbishments, changed rules. Daily operations run through lists and notifications in the Admin Panel.

### Can several people work at the same time?

Yes. Roles and location assignment determine who sees and changes what – for example a reception role limited to visitors.

### Can we block areas at short notice?

Yes. Areas can be blocked, which cancels existing bookings; for planned interruptions there are activation rules with scheduling.

### What happens to bookings during a move?

“Duplicate and replace” transfers ongoing bookings to a new area when the structure stays the same.
