Creating Meeting Rooms

Meeting Rooms record store information including the dimensions of a room, handicap accessibility, if there are any obstructions that need to be considered when configuring a room, and the venue in which the room is located. Meeting room records also store information about the different types of meeting rooms that can be defined as well as sub-rooms associated with a particular meeting room.

Follow the steps below to create a new Meetings Room record.

  1. Open a new record from the Meeting Rooms service found under the Meeting Management application.
  2. Enter a Name for the meeting room.
  3. Enter a Description of the meeting room.
  4. If the meeting room is a child of an existing Meeting Rooms record, enter the name of the parent in the Parent ID field.
