Configure Room Types

A room type is the class or category of the room, for example, meeting room, auditorium, and workspace. Users can use room types to filter search results.

  1. On the EMS Desktop Client menu bar, click Configuration > Facilities > Room Types.
    The Room Types window opens. It lists all the room types configured in your EMS database.

  2. Click New

    The Room Type dialog opens.

  3. In Room Type, enter a description for the new room type (maximum 50 characters, including spaces). 

  4. If you want all Everyday Users to see this room type when searching for available space, select Available to Everyday Users.

  5. Click OK

To loosely define useable space that's not configured, use an Override Room.
