1. What is this module about

...

Apart from the use in other modules, the Buildings and Areas module can aid in managing your real estate, as it helps to get insights into the organization's buildings, including details like location, ownership, occupancy status, and maintenance history.

Most of the core concepts of this module can be managed by key users (building and area editors), therefore most concepts are described in the user manual that can be found here;

The next parts will go into more detail on some of the core concepts of this module that are of relevance for administrators:

1.1 Categories


Each building and area that is created, is created in a category. For more general information about categories, see: Categories

...

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)
