  1. In v25.2, we can still assign processes and mobile application security groups to users even if those applications are not licensed. The system would be more user friendly if it did not allow this.

  2. We constantly have to customize Archibus to show highlighted leases on floorplans. With space console being the primary place for viewing floor plans, it would be helpful if an out of the box highlight/label for leases is present in space console, with the ability to associate rooms to leases. Bringing in the concept of suites wouldn't be a bad idea either, though most customers we service track space to the room and don't use suites.

  3. ARCHIBUS Space users have increasingly relied on the Space Console as their primary interface for space-management tasks and reports. However, the Space Console doesn't support more flexible and complex activity-based working environments as well as older views that were designed for that purpose. The idea that a user must "downgrade" the user experience to handle more complex workflows is confusing and frustrating.

    The proposal is to enhance the Space Console to support these specific and oft-required cases:
    - Sharing rooms among multiple departments
    - Assigning employees to primary and satellite workspaces
    - Viewing both permanent and temporary (hoteled) occupancy together…

  4. Customers are looking for ways to replace furniture system booking applications (Condeco) with Archibus functionality.

    The Kiosk mode for room reservations in workplace could be a good alternative, if extended to Hoteling for workspaces.

    A partnership between SpaceIQ/Archibus and a company providing desk beacons could be a good alternative, using barcode scanning and hoteling to initiate the booking. The beacon would then need to turn red, indicating the space is booked.

  5. Right now it is not possible to filter in the advanced filters by the standard. This was possible in the old console and it would be really useful.

    Adding to this in the standards tab, the calculations made are not equivalent to the ones in the divisions/department and category tabs.

  6. Several problem types such as Cleaning/Setup are required by the requester for a specific date/time. This is especially true for the Higher Education/University/Hospital verticals. There should be an easy way for the requester to provide this information and for this information to be visible to the Supervisor/Craftsperson executing on these requests.

  7. Make Social Distancing Button, Target Occupancy, Advanced Search, a parameter base functionality. This functionally does not make sense for all clients and is considered disruptive.

  8. Smart Client Read Only - Easy role/security to allow power users to have Smart Client and AutoCAD Overlay in a 'read only' role. This would allow ad-hoc queries for users that have learned the data structure but are not editors. We would also like planners to be able to do afm highlights and query highlights in AutoCAD, but not able to edit data.

  11. Even if you have the "Enable Lookups" option turned on, any drawing view that uses legends still only shows the code and does not show description. In general, it would be helpful for all end users to see both the code and description in a drawing legend (regardless of the Enable Lookups option)

  12. For our back to work effort, we added the "Room by Status" to the Space Console Highlight menu. We did not extend this highlight to the Move console. It will be beneficial to add this highlight to the Move console as well so users can see and prepare scenarios, not just for rooms by occupancy, but also for available rooms after applying social distancing guidelines.

  13. We have received direct requirements from both public and private organizations in the US that demand configurable workflow in Lease Administration. This is significant as lease workflow has become a common feature in other solutions.
    i. Allow administrators to design workflow. The Graphical Workflow Editor is a great start to meeting this requirement.
    ii. Need to allow someone to create a draft lease or start a revision of an existing lease
    iii. Submit lease through review and approval workflow
    iv. Upon approvals, a new lease revision is added to the system and becomes the primary lease record
    v. A history…

  14. Currently, we can design as many print template as needed, however, users must choose and hard-code one print template per export feature (one template for PDF one for Doc)

    I suggest allowing users to select the desired template from a dropdown menu. This will allow users to design print layouts by paper size, recipient, or purpose and, when needed, just select the preferred template from a print menu.

  15. Some life-safety assets should appear on the Workplace floor plan as a wayfinding feature (Exit, Defibrillators, Fire Extinguishers, First Aid).

    To do this, we should develop a functionality, similar to the RED-LINE feature, that will enable users to:
    1. Associate icons with assets
    2. Drag and drop icons directly to a floor plan
    3. Display icons on Workplace floorplans

  16. Pretty much all lease departments have to handle this some way. The existing workflow is to create CAM cost to handle maintenance but these CAM costs aren't specifically linking to a maintenance request or a project. So the idea was it would only satisfy the lease agreements which handle a blanket CAM cost.

    However, in real life, leases in which the client is acting as the tenant, don't have true control to set up the lease agreement this way because they use the landlord's version of the lease agreement since the tenant doesn't own the building. So as a result,…

  17. Under Real Property/Costs/Cost Administrator/Costs Wizard - Leases, Buildings, and Properties

    Most folks have an approval workflow where certain costs like maintenance costs associated to a lease or a project cost associated to a lease have to be approved. While his view allows folks to edit, view and approve recurring, scheduled and actual costs but then once you get into this view, there's no special security groups required here.

    It would make sense that there is a approval level security group that can approve the scheduled costs. That way the others who have access to this report are there to just…

  18. Department box functionality is confusing to users.

    Suggestions: 1) only show box if manager, or remove restriction so all employees in department can see eachother, 2) change text from Search Employee --> Search Employees in Department
    This is not versatile to other user types i.e. non manager.

  19. Would like to be able to utilize the Space Console drag and drop as well as the ability to create a Move without providing access to all edit and delete rights that granting the security group of Space-Console-All-Access provides.

    Space-Console-Moves would be ideal.

  20. When going into the asset lifecycle consoles, a user with the right security group should have the ability to perform bulk edits. It's not efficient to go and edit 1 asset at a time. Especially if a user was using the exceptions reporting and found 3000 assets were missing a value of some property from the exceptions filtering, it makes sense to bulk edit them.
