Facility Management FAQ
Frequently asked questions regarding facility management in MinistryPlatform.
You could consider adding the detail to the Notes field. A SPoC could also work with Professional Services to add a Room Name and/or Room Number field to the Equipment page.
See our article on how to cancel a reservation. For information on canceling an Event and all related reservations, see Cancel an Event.
You can add a recurring event for "Facility Closed" and add all of the rooms not available during these times to those Events. Then, the users would see that the rooms are not available when they create their events.
We recommend for an Event to trigger one Process with two steps:
- Tentative Approval
- Final Approval
If other aspects of the Event need approval such as rooms or services, they will need their own approval Process. Rooms and services related to Events are considered "child records". Processes for child records occur at the same time as the Event Process, and you can't trigger Processes to start based on when an Event Process is completed. We recommend you let most rooms be approved with Tentative or Final and only have separate Processes for special rooms. See Event Approval and Event Room Approval for more information.
