1. Master data
Master data forms the foundational elements within any IWMS (Integrated Workplace Management System), serving as the backbone for organizational operations and decision-making processes. It comprises essential information that remains relatively static and holds significant importance for the organization's day-to-day activities.
...
if this should not be the case (e.g. user should only be able to see/select specific buildings or only be able to edit specific buildings or parts of a building (all areas of a given floor), contextual access should be enabled via Module settings → Buildings and areas: Contextual access to properties (or directly via the module activation)
. For more information on this, see: Contextual contextual access to building and areas
Additional categories
If the default building or area categories (described in the Master data Properties & Areas module) are not sufficient, additional categories can be added. See Master data Properties & Areas module for more information on this.
4. How to activate this module
As for every new module, use the ‘Module activation’ option on the administrator startboard (only available for level 2 and level 3 admins). For more general information about these 'Module activation' options, see Module activation
4.1 Prerequisites before activating this module
The Buildings and areas module does not require any other modules to be activated before.
4.2 Module activation
For this specific module activation, only one setting applies:
...
Contextual access to buildings: This will enable the contextual access for buildings. See before and contextual access
After starting the module activation, the buildings and areas related imports become available to download in the next step. For more details, see further down (Data imports).
Starting the module activation will also enable the relevant user groups and these can be assigned to user profiles via the User profile management dashboard which can be found on the admins startboard. For more details, see further down (User groups and profile suggestions).
4.3 Data imports
When activating this module, some data imports become available, which can be used to quickly import relevant data into the system (as opposed to manually entering this data, which is also possible).
Relevant data imports become available in the module activation after the activation has been started. Default data imports can also be found on the admins startboard (only for level 2 and level 3 administrators).
For more information on data imports in general, see: Data imports
If the buildings and areas module is activated, the following default import connectors become available:
Reference | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
FMB-F-021 | Import buildings | This can be used to import buildings of the customer. |
FMB-F-022 | Import areas | This can be used to import the areas of the building of the customer. |
