Reserve a workplace near to your co-worker using their shared reservation
details.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn_wsd_core.workplace_user

## Procedure

1. Open the email containing the reservation details sent by your co-worker.
2. Review the reservation details and scroll down to the end of the email.
3. To search for all the available spaces that are available near the co-worker's workplace, select Browse all spaces.  
   The Reservation portal is opened with pre-filled details as per your co-worker's reservation. You can select a suitable workplace by yourself.
