The General Facility Information tab requests data relating to age, location, size, and contact personnel. Most of the information contained in this section is self-explanatory. Items that require more detail are explained below.
Identification
Tips for defining a Facility Code.
Address
The Validate Button confirms the address using the Bing mapping web service and assigns the closest Weather Stations.
Weather Station details, and the difference of a TMY weather station.
Floor Area
Check the Derived Floor Area check box if you used a calculation to estimate the floor area (i.e., the number is not very reliable), or you have intentionally increased or decreased the floor area for some reason. The text box next to the check box is used for comments related to the floor area number, including the nature of any derived floor areas.
Some validation rules restrict users from entering incorrect data. For example, the Floor Area field requires numeric data. Text will not be accepted in this field.
Construction
Do not enter any characters other than numbers. 1972 will be understood. Entering in "1972?" will cause the value to be lost when you click Done.
Contact Information
In the Contact Information section, the Manager and Operator Change link allows contacts to be assigned from the ManagingEnergy Address Book which is specific to each Portfolio. You can add names to this Address Book through the Contacts Button, in the Work Area, when you have the Portfolio selected in the Portfolio Tree.
