Note

Buildings (not only the category, but the object in general) can also have a hierarchical structure (e.g building can have sub-buildings). The categories do not impact the use of sub buildings and parent buildings. It is possible to set a building of the category ‘Geographical area’ as a sub building of a ‘building’ category building. However, this might lead to issues if integrations with for instance Workplace Experience is used. As other product might have more strict rules for buildings in categories that are allowed to be set as child of certain categories. Therefor, if all categories are used, it is advised to use a logic structure (Buildings on the lowest level, followed by sites and on the top level the ‘Geographical area’ buildings)

Note

Areas also have a hierarchical structure. E.g meeting rooms and workplaces are part of a floor area). The categories do not impact the use of sub areas and parent areas. It is possible to set an area of the category ‘floor’ as a sub area of a ‘Workplace’ category area. However, this might lead to issues if integrations with for instance Workplace Experience are used. As other product might have more strict rules for the area hierarchy in categories that are allowed to be set as child of certain categories. Therefor, if all categories are used, it is advised to use a logic structure (e.g parking, workplaces and meeting rooms on the lowest level, followed by floors)
