Premises Detail Section - Leases Workspace

The Premises detail section is used to break the leased space into its individual parts for accounting purposes. For example, if an organization rented three floors—Floors 1, 4, and 9—their landlord may charge different amounts per square foot depending on the attributes of the space. Floor 1 may have the highest cost due to being the most convenient, Floor 9 could be second-highest due to the amenities and scenic view, and Floor 4 could be lowest due to being generic office space.

The Premises detail section ties into the Income & Expenses detail section, where users can tie an income or expense to a specific premise. Users should document their parking in both the Parking and Premises detail section, because while the Parking detail section allows you to document the start and end dates of a parking agreement as well as the costs, the Parking detail section does not tie into the Income & Expenses detail section.

To perform actions in this detail section, you need to be able to see the Details pane. Click the List View, Summary View, and Map View buttons to toggle different content views. For more information about different content views, see the Content Views section of the Common Attributes of Workspaces page.
