To create a desk booking, users choose the following details:

* **Date** — select the necessary date.
* **Seats** — adjust the number of seats if necessary.
* **Time** — select the desired time.

<Info>
  Users and administrators can book any available current or future slot, but only administrators can log past bookings through the admin web portal.
</Info>

* **Repeat** — available only if the desk is completely free. Choose one of the suggested recurrence patterns or select **Custom** to set your own recurrence pattern.
* **End repeat** — choose:
  * **On date** — to set a specific final booking date, or
  * **Never** — to set an open-ended recurrence.
  * For **Custom** recurrences, users can also choose **After number of occurrences** to schedule a specific number of recurring bookings.

<Info>
  Users can create recurring bookings only for completely free desks. If the desk booking is paid, administrators can create a [recurring booking](/docs/resource-management/resources/bookings#create-a-recurring-booking) for the customer and charge them separately.
</Info>

* **Booker** — user for whom the booking should be made. This feature is exclusive to administrators and [company managers](/docs/customer-management/companies/members-and-managers), who have the authority to create bookings on behalf of [company members](/docs/customer-management/companies/members-and-managers) when needed.

<Info>
  Company managers can make desk bookings for other company members either with company day passes, credits, or a company invoice.
</Info>

<Info>
  When you book for another user, you choose whether to notify them about the booking.
</Info>

* **Memo** — a private note visible only to the user and administrators.
* [**Promo code**](/docs/billing/discounts/give-and-apply#create-promo-codes) — allows a user to redeem a discount on the desk booking if they qualify for any discounts.
* **Payment** — select the payment method with which they want to pay. [Understand payment methods](/docs/billing/payments/payment-methods).
* **Legal business name, Address,** and **Tax ID.** These fields appear depending on the [**Require billing details** setting.](/docs/customer-management/billing-details)
