  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;

The Change Room Information screen displays four new sections:

  • Emergency Contacts--The PI and EHS Representative for the Roomset are default emergency contacts. You can remove them from the list (click the Remove button) or add new names to the list (click the Add a Person button).
