New contract: units and rooms

The fourth step says which units of the building the contract covers, and can create new units with their rooms and beds. Units belong to the building; the contract covers them. Only units covered by an active contract can receive residents. This step is optional: units can also be added later on the building page and covered from the contract page.

For an existing building

Units of the building covered by this contract: N of M lists the building’s units. Every unit is ticked at first.

• Columns: Unit no., Floor, Gender, Rooms, Beds and Current contract (the contract that covers the unit today).
• Untick the units this contract does not cover. The box in the heading ticks or clears them all.

Below it, Add new units to the building (optional) creates units the building does not have yet; they are covered by this contract. Unit numbers that already exist in the building are refused.

For a new building

The Layout generator creates the list of units, then you adjust single rows.

The layout generator

• From floor and To floor: the floors to fill (0 is the ground floor).
• Units per floor, Rooms per unit and Beds per room.
• Numbering: Floor × 100 (101, 102…) or Sequential (1, 2, 3…).
• Gender per floor: Male or Female residents for each floor.
• Building defaults: fills the generator from the building’s structure.
• Units to generate: N shows how many units will be listed. At most 1000 units are created at once.
• Generate: fills the list. If the list already has units, Replace the units asks for confirmation first.

The totals Units, Rooms and Beds are shown above the list.

The list of units

Each row has Unit no., Floor, Gender, Rooms, Beds per room and the resulting Beds, and can be edited directly. Add unit adds an empty row, the bin icon removes a row and Remove all empties the list.

• Unit no.: a whole number, unique in the building. A number used twice shows This unit number is used more than once.
• Floor: from 0 to the building’s number of floors.
• Rooms and Beds per room: from 1 to 50.
