Event Information

 

Each row in the file needs to contain the following fields.  It is assumed that each row represents a room booking.  An action can be triggered on the main event start/stop times or the booking start/stop times.  Only rows that have a particular status and have rooms assigned to equipment will be used for scheduling.  This will be a daily import into Events2HVAC.

 

Each row should be sorted by TimeBookingStart prior to export to a file.  The date range should include events for an entire day at least, with some overlap in time with the next planned import of events.

 

File name should be date coded with the date range of the query so the user importing the file doesn’t import a file with older events by accident.

Events_[YYYYMMDD]_[YYYYMMDD].csv or similar.
