Add Room Step 2

To add a room, you will move through three screens:

1. Search for Room screen: lets you find and choose the physical location (building and room number) of the new room;
2. Add Room screen: lets you add some basic characteristics, such as Room Status, Inspection Status. and Room Description, to the new room;
3. Change Room Information screen: is where you add Hazards and Contacts to your new room.

On the Add Room screen, you can edit the following:

• Is a Subroom?--The default is no. If you want to divide up one physical room between two or more roomsets (PIs), you must make them subrooms. Each subroom will only exist within one roomset, but the location of those subrooms (the room number) will exist in both. To create a subroom click "Yes"
• Room Status--At this level, there are only two statuses, Active and Inactive. Inactive is meant for rooms that are not in day-to-day use.
• Inspection Status--There are two statuses, Inspect and Do Not Inspect. If a room contains a hazard, it should be inspected. The exception is if the room is "Inactive," at which point it may not need inspection.
• Room Description--This is optional. You may enter any information here. This text will print on the Green Card.

Once you have made any necessary changes to this information, click on the Save Changes button.

Result: You will move to the Change Room Information Screen.

Subroom: a room that is divided into distinct spaces that are assigned to one PI i.e. no secondary PI is assigned. Each space (subroom) is registered in the system along with its contacts and hazards and must be inspected separately.
