Seating changes
Managing moves
CSV updates keep seating assignments current as colleagues join, leave or change desks.
An entry with a desk number creates the corresponding seating assignment. An updated desk number changes the assignment and leaves the previous seat marked as a spare desk.
Removing an entry from the file and importing it clears the corresponding seating assignment, leaving a spare desk.
