Buildings are the second required level of the location hierarchy and contain all the records of buildings within a facility. Although this level is called building, other items can also be assigned to this level.
Contractors can be associated with a building so that you can view a list of affiliated maintenance contracts.
The building level contains all the building records within a facility. As work orders are written, all labor, parts, and other costs roll up to the building associated with the area work order (if no tag number is identified).
Work orders written against items with a tag number will not roll up to the building level, even though the location of those items may be assigned to a specific building. The exception to this is when the Building Asset check box is marked on the tagged item record.
Most of the building windows, buttons, and check box options are found throughout WebTMA. These are described in the separate Help > Help Page > Common Functions document.
