# Adding or editing an office or desk

In Nexudus, when you define a desk (dedicated or shared), an office or other item, you must associate it with a particular floor plan. You can also add information about the desk or office's size, capacity, target price and zone.

Occupancy will then be tracked individually for each of these items.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         |

This could be something like "Unit 205" or "Desk 203".                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   |
| Floor Plan                                | The floor plan this unit or desk is part of.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 |
| Customer                                  | <p>If a customer if permanently using this unit or desk, you can assign it here. <br><br><strong>IMPORTANT NOTE:</strong> in most cases you <strong>should not</strong> manually assign customers to units or desks directly like this. Instead, assign the unit or desk to their contract. This will make sure we can automatically assign and remove customers to/from units as their contracts start and end but, most importantly, track and forecast occupancy based on the start and end dates of those contracts.</p> |
| This unit cannot be assigned to contracts | If this unit is not available to be sold as part of a contract, you can enable this option. This can be useful when a unit is under maintenance, for example.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                |
| Size                                      | This defines the size of this unit in square feet or square meters. This is then used in reports to give you the price per size in feet or meters.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           |
| Capacity                                  | This defines the amount of people that can comfortably fit in this unit. This is then used in reports to give you the price per unit of capacity.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            |
| Target Price                              | This is the price new contracts will default to when assigned to this unit. You can change the price of individual contracts if needed. This price also drives your revenue occupancy reports. The sum of all target prices for all desks and offices will be your target revenue.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           |
| Zone                                      | This is a free text field allowing you to assign units and desks to different areas. This will then be used in reports.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      |
