User status changes are designed to be minimally invasive and maximally productive
- quick status changes can be executed quickly (with just a couple mouse clicks) or users
can provide more information such as expected return date/time and status comments (facilitated
by our exclusive return time assist and status comment library features).
OfficeStatus Windows Client goes even further, providing deep integration with the
user's operating system. OfficeStatus Windows Client uses this integration to automatically
detect important environmental changes such as user idle state, workstation lock
or unlock, screen saver engagement, startup and shutdown, and more. Windows Client can
then react to these events with automatic status changes - all designed to be unobtrusive
and completely configurable.
A user's ability to change the status of other users is controlled by their role
membership. Users can always change their own status, while Receptionist role members
can change the status of any user. Department Manager role members can change the
status of any user within the same department.
