  • Page 6: Overview

    Welcome to RoomWizard™, your web-based scheduling system for meeting rooms and other shared spaces. RoomWizard incorporates the use of an interactive flat-screen display that is mounted near the meeting room entrance with the convenience of a web-based room reservation system that you can access from any computer on the network.
  • Page 7 RoomWizard’s appliance-like design makes it so easy to use that most people won’t need to read this manual. We believe that the best way to get a quick and effective understanding of how RoomWizard works is to take the virtual tour at www.steelcase.com/roomwizard by clicking on “Launch Demo.”...

  • Page 8: What Is Roomwizard

    You can enjoy the convenience of returning to your office after a meeting with the meeting notes waiting for you in emails sent to you from RoomWizard. Meeting participants are not bothered with copying meeting notes. Your captured whiteboard notes serve for archival purposes, to forward the notes to others, for incorporation into the next presentation, or to print for use in the next meeting.

    When you browse to a RoomWizard web address, you’ll see a page like this: RoomWizard web pages are easily identified by the RoomWizard logo and perhaps your own company’s logo. RoomWizard web pages also include a menu bar of options, a calendar, and at least one timeline. Each feature is described below.

  • Page 12: The Calendar

    The Calendar RoomWizard web pages provide a calendar where you specify the date of your meeting. To select a meeting date, just click the calendar year, month, and date.

  • Page 17: Invite People

    If RoomWizard is linked to your company email database, it automatically recognizes names and email addresses as you enter them. When you enter a Host name that is in the corporate email database, RoomWizard automatically adds that person’s email address to this field if it is available.

  • Page 19: Send Reservation Details To Attendees

    If your company is like most, you sometimes find that meeting rooms may be reserved but not used. (We like to call these “phantom” meetings.)

  • Page 20: Cost Center

    • note: NOTE: You can easily extend your reservation using the RoomWizard touch screen, so captured whiteboard notes continue to be emailed to the host and invitees.

Cost Center Your company may track the use of rooms so that reservations can be charged back to your department, or your facilities department may be interested in knowing who uses what rooms.

  • Page 21: Start And End Times

    The “Start time” and “End time” fields enable you to enter your room reservation in fifteen minute increments. The initial value in the “Start time” field is determined by where you clicked on the timeline. RoomWizard fills in an “End time” automatically. You can adjust the start and end times by selecting an option from the drop-down list that appears when you click the field.

  • Page 22: Passwords For Meetings

    Your RoomWizard system manager can help you set up a password for a room. In this case only those who know the password can reserve this room.

  • Page 23: Service Menus

    Service Menus RoomWizard provides the option to request a number of services to support your meeting, such as catering, audiovisual equipment, or room setup. If your company supports this option, services appear under “Services” on the advanced reservation form, as in this example.
  • Page 24 “for” or “until” and choose from the drop down list of options. Click “Save.” RoomWizard attempts to make all the reservations that you requested. If it finds no conflicts with existing reservations, the reservations are saved and you return to the main Reservation page.

    VAILABLE OOMS The RoomWizard menu includes the “Find” option to help you search for an existing reservation (perhaps so that you can edit or delete it), or find an available room. Note that the “Find” option searches the group of rooms you see from the Reservation page. It does not extend its search over rooms in other groups that you would normally access via the pull-down list that appears beneath the menu.

You can extend your reservation unless there is a schedule conflict with another reservation.

    Making an Impromptu Reservation When a room is not currently in use, RoomWizard displays “Available” and the green LEDs on each side of the appliance are visible from long distances down the hall. You can claim an available room for immediate use from the RoomWizard touch screen. If you do, RoomWizard communicates with the reservation system and indicates that the room is reserved so others looking for a room do not interrupt your meeting.
  • Page 35 If you have an impromptu meeting in a room that includes the One-Click Publishing option, simply claim the room using the RoomWizard touch screen as usual and capture notes on the whiteboards as usual. The room administrator receives captured whiteboard notes in email at the end of your reservation. When you return to your office, ask the room administrator to forward the captured whiteboard notes to you.
