Projects & inventory

Towers, floors and units

Set up a project's inventory: generate towers and floors, load a sale-area sheet, add plots, fix unit attributes on the grid, mark corner and park-facing units, and publish.

Where setup happens

Real estate › Inventory lists every project with its unit counts by status. A project with no units shows Set up inventory; one with units shows Edit inventory on its page. Both open the setup wizard, whose steps are Tower and floor setup (or Upload sheet / Plots and pockets), Unit grid, Payment plan, Pricing and Review and publish. Admins, CRM and sales heads can run it.

The Set up as pills at the top choose the method: Generate towers for high- and low-rise projects, Upload inventory sheet for any building (apartments, shops, offices) with the builder's unit list, and Plots and pockets for plots, villas, houses and independent floors.

Generating towers

  1. Under Towers, set the Count and, per tower, the Tower name, the Unit pattern ({F} is the two-digit floor, {U} the two-digit unit, so 0503 is floor 5 unit 3) and Units/floor.
  2. Under Floors, set Floors per tower, Include ground and Skip floor 13.
  3. Under Units per floor, pick the unit type for each position (Unit 01 type, Unit 02 type …) from the project's typology, so every unit carries its type and areas.
  4. Enter the Heights (floor-to-floor, ground floor, podium) and switch on Commercial / shops for a retail block with its own floors and pattern.
  5. Check the Preview panel (towers, floors, total units, building height) and click Build unit grid (N units).
On a project that already has units the button reads Rebuild unit grid, and a red "Cannot build" card lists the towers that have booked or held units.

Loading a sale-area sheet

  1. Choose Upload inventory sheet. Type the Block name if the sheet does not name it, and click Upload sale-area sheet (.xlsx, .xls, .xlsm or .csv).
  2. BMexa finds the columns by their headers: UNIT NO (or SHOP NO / FLAT NO), TOWER / BLOCK / BUILDING, FLOOR, UNIT TYPE, BUILT-UP, CARPET and SUPER / SALEABLE areas (sq m and/or sq ft), TOILET and KVA. Rows such as "FIRST FLOOR" start a floor; a SUMMARY tab is cross-checked.
  3. Review the preview: how many units are new, updated, restored or unchanged, which are held or sold and left alone, what is not on the sheet (kept), the per-floor totals and the new Unit types. Click Confirm: add N, update N ….
  4. Use Add units instead to add a floor by hand: a Numbered range (prefix, from, to, digits) or a List of unit numbers, with block, floor, unit type and areas, up to 500 at a time.

Plots, villas and independent floors

  • Choose Plots and pockets. Download template gives the land sheet: Pocket, Plot No, Type, Plot area, Built-up area, Dimensions, Facing, Road width (m), Corner, Park facing and Floor. Fill it and Upload template, or use Add plots / villas for a range.
  • Independent floors builds the floors on every plot; a Stilt (parking, no unit) creates no unit.
  • Pricing for land projects can be one rate on one area, or land plus construction, with PLCs by road width and facing (see Price lists).

The unit grid and Mark units

The Unit grid step shows every tower as floors of cells. Click a cell to select it, Ctrl-click to add more, or drag to paint a range; the toolbar then offers Remove, Restore, Set type…, Set facing… and Clear. The inspector on the right edits one unit: Unit type (a Duplex reserves the unit above), the Areas, Balcony, Facing, the Location flags (Corner, Park-facing, Pool / club view), Power backup (kVA) and Mark as removed. Add unit adds a single unit; a tower can be renamed from its header.

Marking many units at once

  1. Click Mark units to set attributes on many units at once.
  2. Pick the Towers, the Floors from / To and the Unit positions on the floor (the last two digits of the unit number: "4, 5 or 2-4").
  3. Under What to set, choose Corner, Park facing, Pool view (Leave as is / Yes / No), Facing and Power backup (kVA) (Leave as is / Set to … / Clear), and click Apply to N units.

Review and publish

The last step shows the totals (units, towers, prices computed), the unit types and the towers, and warns if pricing is not configured ("Units will publish without prices"). Click Publish inventory: the sales team can then see the units, hold them and book them.
