summary for non-techies**
Starting in April 2026, Microsoft Teams will introduce a feature that automatically updates your work location based on your connection to your organization's Wi-Fi or certain devices, similar to a smart home system adjusting settings based on your presence, with optional user control and admin setup required.
Direct effects for Operations**
Automatic Work Location Update
If the feature is rolled out without proper configuration, users may experience incorrect work location settings, leading to confusion in team coordination and scheduling.

| 2025-10-25 | MC How Affect | This feature allows you to map Wi-Fi networks and devices to buildings, which allows your users to have their work location automatically configured when they connect. This is a major improvement over the current experience which relies on end-users to manually set their work location. When this feature is configured and enabled, Teams can automatically update the work location of users who connect their laptop to your organization's Wi-Fi network or peripherals. The feature can leverage the mapping between your building names and your Wi-Fi networks to set the work location of your users to the right building. It can also leverage mappings to specific peripherals, such as monitors. Teams uses the same policy to enable or disable automatic updates of work location for Wi-Fi and peripherals.
