Recaptured time
What is recaptured time?
Recaptured time is the meeting room time that becomes available again when a booked meeting is released because nobody showed up, or when a meeting ends earlier than planned. It is the difference between the time that was booked and the time the room was actually held.
An example
Anna books a room for 60 minutes. The meeting moves to next week, but the booking stays in Outlook. The room display asks for confirmation around the start time, nobody confirms within 15 minutes, and the room is released. The organization has recaptured 45 minutes of room time that someone else can now book.
Why recaptured time matters
Every recaptured minute is room capacity you already pay for, returned to people who need it. It also makes booking data more honest, because released meetings no longer count as demand.
How AskCody helps recapture time
AskCody meeting room displays can ask attendees to confirm meetings and release rooms that are not confirmed, and let people end meetings early so the rest of the slot opens up. Administrators set the confirmation window.
Frequently asked questions
How is recaptured time calculated?
Booked duration minus the time the room was held before it was released or the meeting ended.
Does recaptured time include meetings that end early?
Yes. When a meeting is ended early on the display, the remaining booked time becomes available.
