Adding specialist rooms manually

Specialist rooms can be set up in two ways:
• Added manually, as described below.
• Imported from a CSV (comma-separated value) file. See Importing specialist rooms.

Note: The room codes in the luRoom lookup table in Synergetic must match the room codes entered in Primary Time. See the luRoom lookup table in the Synergetic System maintenance manual.

Tip: If the luRoom lookup table is not populated in Synergetic you can select the Allow insert of rooms in luRoom field when importing to populate the lookup table with Primary Time room codes. See Importing Primary Time timetables into the Synergetic timetable.
