Special fields

The special fields in a CAD mapping identify the TRIRIGA® business object fields that TRIRIGA CAD Integrator/Publisher uses for the CAD mappings. The special field type controls how TRIRIGA CAD Integrator/Publisher interacts with the selected field.

Name

The TRIRIGA field that is populated from the text on the Name layer or level. The user specifies the layer or level in the Upload area of the Smart Attach window.

Gross area

The TRIRIGA gross area field that is populated from the gross area boundary layer or level. The user specifies the layer or level in the Attach area of the Smart Attach window. The TRIRIGA gross area field can also be populated by using the individual attachment method.

Measured gross area

The TRIRIGA measured gross area field that is populated from the measured gross area boundary layer or level. The user specifies the layer or level in the Attach area of the Smart Attach window. The TRIRIGA measured gross area field can also be populated by using the individual attachment method.

Area 1

The TRIRIGA area field that is populated from the boundaries on the Boundary layer or level. The user specifies the layers or levels to upload in the Upload area of the Smart Attach window. The Area 1 field is used for the boundary mappings that are directly under the top-level CAD hierarchy node, such as spaces.

Area 2

The TRIRIGA area field that is populated from the boundaries on the Boundary layer or level. The user specifies the layers or levels to upload in the Upload area of the Smart Attach window. The Area 2 field is used for spaces that are children of Area 1 spaces. The Area 2 special field type provides an alternate area field where the area can be uploaded for the second level. Area 2 spaces are typically used to prevent duplicate area values in a multi-level mapping because duplication can impact area roll-ups.

Mappable

A generic field that can be populated from CAD drawing text in individual drawing layers or levels. You can have multiple mappable fields such as Current Use Space Class, Primary Fax, and Description. Required fields are displayed in the Upload area of the Smart Attach window whether they are mappable or not mappable. When the fields are mappable, users can specify a default upload layer or level.

Item

A field that is used when an Item mapping is attached to or inserted into a boundary. The Item field is populated with the path of the record that is attached to the boundary.

You can specify a default name layer or level. If the name is used in the drawing, the name appears as the layer or level name value. The value appears in the Upload area of the Smart Attach window.
