Align room and equipment type.

HotSOS Thick Client assigns rooms and equipment to Room/Eq Type. It’s easy enough to select a room type for a piece of equipment and an equipment type for a room. It happens! HotSOS Desktop has both, room type and equipment type, found in Rooms and Equipment modules respectively.

As the HotSOS administrator moving from HotSOS Thick Client to HotSOS New Desktop, you might find you need to move some Thick Client rooms or equipment to a more logical room or equipment type in HotSOS New Desktop.
