Can a customer's name appear on the screen?

Only if it is in the booking. Name bookings by service or by a reference, and agree that rule with the branch teams.

Where are the calendar credentials kept?

A connected calendar is held for the whole workspace under Settings, and secrets are stored encrypted, so no login is typed into a screen.

Use cases Banking

Advisor room status

Advisor room status is a digital signage screen in a bank branch that shows whether each advice room is free, in a meeting or ready for the next customer. It reads the branch calendar, and it never shows who is inside.

Advice rooms board showing four rooms by service, with ready, in a meeting and free at times for each

Owned by: Branch manager
Content from: The branch calendar
Seen by: Customers waiting in the branch
Where it hangs: Waiting area, outside the advice rooms

What is on the screen

1Each room with the service it is used for, such as mortgages or business accounts.
2Whether the room is ready, in a meeting, or free from a time.
3Nothing about the customer in the room.

When the data stops

If the calendar cannot be reached, the board should not show rooms as free when they are not.

Calendar answering: each room's status from its bookings.
Calendar unreachable: no room statuses, just a line for the waiting area.

How to do it in Screenly

Room status changes with every booking, so the board reads the calendar the branch already keeps.

Best fit App
The Google Calendar and Outlook Calendar apps show what is booked, one instance per room or one for the whole branch. Name bookings by service, not by customer, because the screen shows what the calendar says.

Also works Web page
If your booking system has a status page for screens, show that page. It is skipped if it cannot load.

Keeping it right

The calendar is the only source
The board shows the branch calendar, so a booking moved by staff moves on the screen too.
Each branch sees its own rooms
Each branch's screens carry its label and show only that branch's calendar.
Names stay off the screen
Bookings are named by service, so the waiting area never sees who is in a room.

Security

The calendar connection is held for the whole workspace under Settings, so no login is typed into a screen.

What a review will ask

The question a review asks about room screens is privacy.

Can a customer's name appear on the screen?: Only if it is in the booking. Name bookings by service or by a reference, and agree that rule with the branch teams.
Where are the calendar credentials kept?: A connected calendar is held for the whole workspace under Settings, and secrets are stored encrypted, so no login is typed into a screen.
