Use

If you create building units using the collective entry function, you can maintain the following master data of the building unit on the overview screen:

If you are working with external number assignment, enter the required identification key in the Bld. unit field.

If you are working with internal number assignment, leave the Bld. unit field blank. The system automatically assigns an identification key when you save the data..

Specify the category of the building unit in the Ca field. You can list the permitted values for input by choosing POSSIBLE ENTRIES . This is a required-entry field.

You enter the short text of the building unit in this field.

The identifier of the building unit is output on many screens, for example in the case list, the care unit overview graphic, the occupancy overview and so on. For this reason you should use mnemonic identifiers in as far as possible. Identifiers of building units must only be unique in relation to organizational unit or building unit located above them in the hierarchy.

You create building units with a particular validity. The system defaults the validity start date to the current date and the validity end date to 12/31/9999 (unlimited). You can change these dates.

When creating building units on the collective entry overview screen, you can also subordinate the building units to a building unit or organizational unit. In this way you simultaneously maintain the building hierarchy or the link between the organizational hierarchy and the building hierarchy. You can do this only if the building unit or organizational unit to which you subordinate the building unit already exist.

To subordinate the building unit (e.g. bed location) to another building unit in the building hierarchy (e.g. hospital room), specify the identification key of the higher level building unit in the Higher BU field.

To subordinate the building unit (e.g. sick room) to an organizational unit (e.g. care unit), specify the identification key of the higher level building unit in the Higher OU field.
