‘Locations’ Import- Fields and required formats

Locations are structured in the following hierarchy:

>Site

>>Building

>>>Floor

>>>>Space

This is based on the BIM model, however, we can support a flat list of office locations if you specify each location to be a ‘building’.

There are more fields available if you wish to use the BIM model as mentioned above. Please contact us if you would like to explore this.
