When Subscription or Building administrators have successfully configured a building, it remains in draft form. Mapiq allows you to review and publish your building, making it available to employees in the application. The review process ensures your building is published without issues or conflicts.
Issues & Conflicts
Understanding the difference between issues and conflicts is crucial. Their resolution depends on the specific problem detected:
Error Type | Description |
Issues | A configuration issue prevents you from publishing your building until resolved (e.g., a desk group placed outside area boundaries). |
Conflicts | A warning that a change may cause difficulties for end-users. Conflicts don't block building publication, but resolving them is recommended (e.g., reducing a building's capacity to a number lower than existing bookings). |
⚠️ Conflicts within Mapiq serve as alerts for administrators, warning of potential impacts on employees due to specific actions. They underline the importance of careful consideration before publishing changes that might cause such conflicts. Be aware of conflicts to prevent unintended consequences.
Reviewing Your Building
After configuring your building, the next logical step is always to review the draft to ensure it's free from issues or conflicts.
Go to the Buildings tab and select the building you want to review.
💡Adjacent to the "Review & Publish" button, you can preview whether there are any issues or conflicts with the current draft. If there areYou can goo issues or conflicts, a green checkmark is displayed. In this case, no adjustments are needed, and if you are happy with the current draft, please go ahead and publish the changes.
If issues or conflicts are detected, you'll see a red exclamation mark and the number of issues or conflicts. It's time to review those.
Click on "Review & Publish" to open the Review Changes menu.
Follow the provided suggestions to resolve issues or conflicts.
Fix the issues using the map editor and click "Done" to finalize changes.
💡 Issues & Conflicts are displayed within the map editor, offering immediate solutions to resolve any identified issues within the current configuration.
The issue indicator remains active during your building configuration process, allowing for real-time review and adjustments. Please be aware that processing these changes may take a few seconds.
Publishing Your Building
Once all issues are resolved, publish your building for your employees to access through the employee application:
Go to the Building Overview.
Click "Review & Publish" and ensure all issues are resolved.
Click "Publish" in the Review Changes menu.
A confirmation message will appear once the building is successfully published.
🚨 In the Review Changes menu, you can discard unpublished changes, reverting to the latest published version. Be aware that discarding changes may remove changes made by other administrators, so inform your team before proceeding.
Unpublished Changes
Mapiq allows multiple administrators to collaborate and make changes at the same time. Identifying which building has unpublished changes is challenging, particularly when the building configuration has no conflicts or errors. This could lead to the accidental publishing of changes or the unintentional reversal of other administrators' efforts.
To help administrators recognize unpublished changes, two statuses are added to the building overview:
Status | Description |
Unpublished changes | Changes made to the building but have yet to be released could include changes that still contain conflicts and issues. |
Unpublished | This is a building that has never been published yet. |
