The Building/Room Code is a unique code that when entered, creates a corresponding room on the Desktop Room Definition window. You do not need to enter it, but if the space will be used in the Desktop application, you may want to add it. For example, adding a Building/Room Code would be helpful when setting up a space where courses will be instructed.
In the Desktop application, a space must be associated with a place. If the space you are adding is a part of a place that does not have a Desktop code, then the related space cannot be added to the Desktop application. To make the space available in the Desktop application, assign the place it is a part of a Building/Room Code, and then assign the space a Building/Room code.
Depending upon your role and related permissions, you can update information about the space at any time. For example, a space may change its use from classroom to office or the scheduling availability may be impacted due to remodeling.
To update space information, characteristics, or scheduling availability, access the place's Spaces within block and click on the name of the space you want to update. The Space page appears where an edit option allows you to access and update the space details.
Places can be divided into areas as a way to group spaces. For example, your library may have an office area where several administrative offices and rest rooms are located or your performing arts hall may have an area with several rehearsal spaces, an area with several instructional classroom, and an area with a performance hall, rest room, and box office/ticket sales. Not all places are setup with areas.
The place the space is a part of may not have areas set up. For more information about areas, see Manage Areas.
