Building-specific settings

These settings range from the timezone and preferred time format to enabling/disabling individual features for your devices.

Keep in mind that device-specific settings will override any building settings you might have enabled. The number of buildings you can add depends on your subscription plan.

How to add a building and add resources to it

If you are unsure how to add a building and connect rooms to it in your MyJoan, don’t worry. We prepared a detailed guide just for that. You can find it here.

How to edit building-specific settings

Once you have a building added to your MyJoan, you can enable/disable and adjust certain settings that will override your global Joan Portal settings for selected rooms/resources within that building.

Aside from editing the basic information, such as room, language, and time, the following features can be adjusted for each building:

• Custom logo
• Office hours
• Maintenance email
• Device features
  • “Real-time booking” features (Available only for Joan 6)
  • Show meeting subject and organizer
  • Show tentative meetings
  • Enable touch (Available only for Joan 6)
  • Play sound on touch (Available only for Joan 6)
  • Show charging screen
  • Show “No Wi-Fi” screen (Available only for Joan 6)
• Custom button (Available only for Joan 6)

How to edit these settings

In order to edit these settings, you will need to open the “Edit building” page. Here’s how:

1. Log in to MyJoan with your account credentials
2. Navigate to the “Settings” page via the top navigation menu
3. Click on “Buildings” from the left-hand side menu
4. You will see the list of available buildings. Find the building you wish to edit, and click on the "Edit" button on the right side
   • If you do not have any buildings available, click here to learn how to add one
5. The “Edit building” page will load for you. You will be able to adjust the standard information of the building, such as building name, address, timezone, maintenance email, occupancy, and floors.
6. By default, all building-specific features are disabled, so you will need to enable the ones you wish to edit
7. Once you have enabled the features you desired and adjusted their parameters, click “Save”

And that’s it! You have successfully added building-specific features.
