Project

SpaceManagement is a Project-based program, capable of using an unlimited number of drawings in any particular project. When creating a new project you can define many areas to suit your requirements, such as the Drawing name, Floor/Area for the drawing (important when creating reports), up to 14 customized fields (five for tenants and five for usage), and the Cut-Off price (used to help identify if a price is per square foot, or a set price).

Planning Layer

SpaceManagement simplifies the way to create, copy or modify a planning layer, which includes these four categories: Total Area, Departments, Personnel and Rooms. From the planning layer Add/Update/View, you can change roomtags, add room numbers and other information to the Usage list. For example, if you add hallway spaces and place your roomtag symbol from the Usage list, SpaceManagement will transfer all cost information from the Department planning layer.

SpaceManagement works together with CADVANCE to also help you add drawings to your project and create planning layers for additional floors.

Add Textures to a Plan

Using textures defined by four different space filters (Tenant/Usage, Costcenter, Billing, and Space Area) will help in identifying usage, area, billing information, etc. at a glance. Choose from a combination of 4 different textures and 15 colors. And you can combine your filters for more precise texturing!
