    • Capacity: Enter the the maximum number of people the floor can accommodate. This value is used in the Analyze module for viewing Usage details building metrics.

    • Sqft: Enter the square footage of the floor. The Analyze module references this information when displaying Space details for building metrics.

    • UUID: Universal unique identifier values are read-only and help with simplified identification of resources. The UUID maintains the object's identity consistently across different environments.

    • Sequence: Enter a value to establish the floor's order within the building. The sequence value determines the arrangement of the floors in the list. The next one in the sequence automatically becomes the default value. Floors can have the same sequence value. When sequences are identical, the system orders the floors alphanumerically within the group of records sharing that sequence.
