Properties
The Property is the central entity of Facilioo. It refers to a building or a group of buildings that is owned, rented, or leased by an individual, a company, or an organization.
Entrances
Serves as the primary gateway for residents, visitors, employees, or customers to access properties. A property can have one or multiple entrances and an entrance can belong to a single property.
Relationship between Properties and Entrances
Due to historical reasons, properties and entrances are stored in the same table in facilioo. Therefore, the old system does not distinguish between properties and entrances, it does refer to them as
objects. Units (formerlyflats) could be attached to aobjectback then. The new API model does only support to connect units to entrances, whereas a property has a surrogate entrance in order to stay compatible with the old version. If a property is created, an implicit entrance for that property is created with the same values. Therefore, every property has an entrance with the same ID as the property.
