Rooms

Creating rooms, the required fields, how room price relates to lease price, and bulk creation.

Before you start

  • The building exists. See Buildings.
  • The floor exists — it is a required field on the room form. See Floors.

1. Create a room

  1. Open the form

    Go to Properties → Rooms and press (+).

  2. Fill in the fields

    項目必須説明
    Building必須Determines which floors are offered next.
    Floor必須The room cannot be saved without one.
    Name or number必須Maximum 255 characters. Appears on invoices, tasks and the property layout.
    Price必須Base rent. New leases inherit this as their starting price.
    Deposit必須Default deposit amount for a new lease on this room.
    Area (m²)任意Must be zero or more.
    Room type任意Used for grouping and filtering.
    Maximum occupants任意Whole number, zero or more. Drives per-person services and occupancy warnings.
    Invoice template任意Overrides the building default for this room.
    Lease template任意Overrides the building default for this room.
    Active任意On by default. Inactive rooms cannot be leased or booked.
  3. Save

    The room appears in the list and on the property layout.

2. Room price versus lease price

The room carries a default price. The lease carries the price actually agreed.

Changing the room price does not change existing leases. That is deliberate — a signed lease should never move because someone edited a list screen. To change what a sitting tenant pays, amend the lease or handle it at renewal.

3. Creating many rooms

When a building repeats the same layout per floor, create one floor completely, check the result, then repeat.

  • Check the first invoice generated from one of the new rooms before creating the rest.
  • A mistake copied across sixty rooms takes far longer to unpick than to prevent.

4. Taking a room out of service

Turn Active off rather than deleting. Deleting a room that already has invoices removes the records the finance reports are built from.

For a temporary stop — renovation, a hold — use an availability block instead, so the reason is recorded and occupancy reports stay honest.
