# How to set priority allocation of random spaces
## Setting priority allocation for random spaces in Ronspot allows you to control the order in which spaces are allocated to employees. By assigning a ranking value to each space, you can ensure that certain spaces are allocated first or last.
## How to set a ranking value on a space
Ranking values (0–100) control which spaces are allocated first when an employee requests a random parking space or desk. Spaces with lower values (0–50) are allocated first; spaces with higher values (51–100) are allocated last. Ranking values do not apply when an employee manually selects a space from the map.
---
### Step 1: Navigate to 'Parking spaces' or 'Desks'
- Log in to the [Ronspot admin panel](https://admin.ronspot.ie/).
- Navigate to `Spaces > Parking spaces` or `Spaces > Desks` depending on the type of space you want to configure.
### Step 2: Edit the space
- Find the specific space you want to prioritise, then click on the space name or the pencil icon.
#### Step 3: Set the ranking value
- Find the `Ranking value` section.
- Choose a value:
- Assign a ranking value between 0 and 100 to the space.
- **Lower values (e.g., 0–50)**: Spaces with lower values will be allocated first when an employee requests a random space.
- **Higher values (e.g., 51–100)**: Spaces with higher values will be allocated last when an employee requests a random space.
- Click **Update** to save the changes.
#### Step 4: Repeat for other spaces
- Repeat the same steps for all the other spaces you want to configure with a priority ranking value.
### When do ranking values apply?
- The ranking values you set only apply **when an employee requests a random space.**
- If an employee chooses to go to the map and select a space themselves, **the ranking order will not apply**. In such cases, employees can select any available space regardless of its ranking value.
---
By following these steps, you can effectively manage the priority allocation of random spaces in your organization, ensuring that the most desirable spots are filled first or that certain spaces are reserved for last-minute allocations.
