🏢 Record once which air handling unit or electrical panel serves each room, and see the floor plan colored by it.
You need the Editor role or higher, a building with a 3D model, and a computer.
Create the field
Open Organization settings, click Data fields and then Add data field. Name it after the installation, for example Air handling unit, and choose the type Label so every room picks from the same list.
Open any space, choose Edit data fields in its three-dot menu, and add the field to the spaces template with Add data field and Choose existing. See Create data fields.
Admins and Owners create fields. An Editor can fill them in.
Fill it in, many rooms at once
Open the floor. Press V for the select tool, or click it in the toolbar, and drag a box around the rooms the unit serves. Hold Shift and click to add or remove single rooms.
In the bar at the bottom, pick Spaces under Select topic if other items were caught too.
Open the field in the bar, choose the value, and click Confirm in the dialog. Repeat for the next unit. See Batch edit.
See it on the floor plan
Click Layers and pick the field under Data Layers. Every value gets a color, with a legend; hover a color to see which rooms carry it. See Use your own data fields as layers.
Good to know
This is for mapping what serves what. A set of rooms that belongs together for a tenant or a contract is an area instead; see Create and edit areas.
The same field appears as a column in the Spaces table, so the mapping can be exported and checked in Excel.
If it doesn't work
The field is not under Data Layers
Layers color one floor at a time. Pick a floor first, and check that the field is on the spaces template, not only on assets.
I cannot select rooms
The select tool works on a floor plan, so the building needs a 3D model. See Vyer Light and Vyer Standard.
