Workflow to update employee locations based on teams, contingency location, hoteling or reserved locations
Traditionally, there's a em.bl_id field storing where someone is as assigned seating and the locate the employee reports only look at that location. Can there be a workflow that just runs somehow to evaluate whether someone is at a hoteling desk right now or at a team location so that when we search for where employees are or find an employee we can to find them by their current location?
For example it would be nice for there to be a configurable parameter so system admins can decide the order of priority of how the system should determine where someone is located ie. the first order is by a booked workstation, then a designate team space, then at contingency or not and then finally the employee designed assigned seating?

With the return to work, this now makes sense to be able to allow an employee to find out where their other coworker is. Ie. if it's wednesday....is their colleague in the office hoteling room A, or are they working in meeting room B, or are they at home?

For Hoteling, users would like to be able to find their co-workers that are working at a Hoteling Desk/station. It would be nice to list the name of the employee for the occupied seats so the employee, contractor or visitor can select a seat in proximity.
