Regions

Regions are larger areas that contain buildings. For example, the Europe region might contain buildings located in several European countries. You can decide how best to group buildings within regions.

When you select a region in the Analyze module, all buildings assigned to that region show on the map.

To view regions configuration options, go to Facilities > Regions.

The Regions page includes the following:

• Table filters: Customize the table by applying filters, repositioning columns, and sorting them.

• Search: Enter at least 3 characters to search for an existing region.

   • The export automatically downloads to the download folder.

Synced regions

Integrations with other systems automatically update and manage synced regions. Accruent Space Intelligence reflects changes made in external systems without manual intervention. You cannot change region names or delete regions synced from other systems.

Accruent Space Intelligence pulls changes once per day during the sync process that runs at 1 AM PST.
