Workspaces
A workspace is one location or branch of your business inside your Whautomate account. If you have two studios, two practices or a shop and a salon, give each one its own workspace. Each workspace has its own address, opening hours, team members and calendar, while your plan, billing, account settings and logins are shared across the account.
Everything you see in the app belongs to the workspace selected at the top of the screen. Switch workspace to work in another location.
Before you start
- Only the account Owner and Administrators can create workspaces.
- Your plan includes a number of locations. To add more, buy an Extra location add-on. See Whautomate Add-ons. For prices, see our pricing page.
Switch workspace
- At the top of the screen, open the workspace dropdown. It shows the name of the workspace you are in.
- Choose another workspace. The current one has a tick.
- In Switch Workspace, check the name after You're about to switch to and click Okay, Continue.
Whautomate opens the new workspace. Team members see the workspaces they are assigned to in their team member profile.

Create a workspace
