Learn how to configure and get started with the AskCody Meeting Services (Meeting+) module
Meeting+ enables you to optimize coordination between the employee and the kitchen, canteen management, AV provider, and facility management.
It makes sure that all involved parties know exactly what, when, and where regarding deliveries, and both the employee making the order and organizational unit making responsible for the delivery are given a simple interface that is easy to use. This eliminates the potential misunderstandings between employees and facility staff.
The Meeting+ solution consists of 3 parts:
- The Meeting+ Manager is the online interface where the facility staff can manage incoming orders, outgoing deliveries, available items, and financial aspects.
- The Meeting+ Admin Center is the online interface where the facility management can manage the number of providers and set up specific business rules and workflows for each provider.
- The Meeting add-in is the user interface that integrates with Outlook where employees can create and manage their orders. The add-in is connected to both Exchange and the Meeting+ manager, so all changes regarding meeting time and location are automatically updated when changes are made through Outlook or the Meeting+ Manager.
There are many different configuration options for Meeting+ in order to support as many use cases and workflows as possible. If you have any questions or need configurations advice please contact support or write support@askcody.com.
