Room Types
The Room Types page allows you to define the types of rooms that can be used to define a space within a property, for example, office areas, restrooms, and common areas. The room type values you define populate the Room Type field menu on the Property Spaces/Floors page and the Edit Space window.
Room Types are only used in installations that do not use the Space module.
To open the Room Types page:
-
Open the Administration Menu page.
-
Under the ADMIN heading, click Room Types.
Adding a room type allows you to define the values that users will see in the Room Type field menu on the Property Spaces/Floors page and the Edit Space window. To create a new room type:
-
In the Add Room Type field, enter a name for the room type.
The name you enter must be unique.
-
Click ADD.
A dialog box opens asking you to confirm your choice.
-
Click OK.
Room types can be modified. For example, if you want to change the value that users see, you can modify the name. To edit a room type:
-
In the Room Type field, select the room type you want to edit.
-
In the Rename field, enter a new name for the room type.
Renaming a room type causes all historical information to reflect the new name.
-
Click UPDATE.
Room Types that have not been used can be deleted from the system. If a room type has been associated with a space/floor, it cannot be deleted.
To delete a room type value:
-
In the Room Type field, select the room type value you want to delete.
