Feature Request - Schedule Future Changes

We would like the ability to schedule future desk assignment changes in Zoom Workspace Reservation without immediately disrupting current hoteling availability or existing reservations.

Currently, Zoom allows desk reservations up to XX days in advance. If a desk will become permanently assigned or reserved for a specific employee on a future date, there does not appear to be a way to apply that change only starting on the effective date. This creates two difficult options: either block the desk from being booked before the change takes effect, or allow users to book it and then manually rebook or cancel reservations once the future assignment is made.

Requested functionality:

Allow admins to create future-dated desk assignment changes with an effective start date. The desk should remain bookable under its current configuration until that date, and then automatically switch to the new assignment or availability rules. Ideally, the system would also warn admins if existing reservations conflict with the future assignment.

This would help prevent confusion for employees, reduce manual rebooking, and make it easier to manage upcoming seating changes for new hires, temporary assignments, and hybrid workstations.
