In each building within a campus there are organizational units called floors which contain rooms. From the Building Details page, the Floor tab may be selected to view the Floor Summy page containing a list of floors in that building. This page allows administrators to add new floors, delete existing floors, and access the Floor Details page where they may add, view, or modify floor details. This page also allows access to additional levels of detail where changes can be made to the attributes for rooms. For further navigation instructions, see Navigating Administration.
Floor details that may be viewed, modified, or added are as follows:
Floor Name
Floor Icon: (Optional) Clicking the Browse button will open an explorer to locate the image file on your computer that will serve as the icon for the new floor.
