About classroom listing

Adding classrooms can help you report on how your space is used. When scheduling a class, you can enter where the class will take place on the location tab. The location is a free-form text box, allowing you to enter anything. However, using consistent classroom names aligning with the classrooms you establish in classroom listing allows you to report on rooms using SSRS reports. Campus Cafe delivers a room usage report in the base reports (Faculty > Base Reports > Registrar Reports > Room Used Listing) and customers may create additional reports.
