Overview
The room and seat configuration of your center — often called the floor plan or seat map — is fully synced to partner organizations. When you add a new room, change its capacity, update seat identifiers, or remove a room, those changes flow to the partner side automatically. This ensures that the partner organization always has an accurate picture of your center’s physical layout and availability when planning candidate sessions.Room configuration that is synced
For each room in your center, the following details are mirrored:| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Room name | The display name shown in the dashboard |
| Workflow step | Which exam step the room is assigned to (e.g. Listening, Reading & Writing or Speaking) |
| Capacity | The total number of seats in the room |
| Status | Whether the room is Active or Inactive |
| Seats | Individual seat identifiers within the room |

|---|---|
| Add seat | New seat appears in the partner’s room |
| Edit seat identifier | Updated identifier reflects on the partner side |
| Remove seat | Seat is removed from the partner’s room |
Room map view
The Room map button on the center overview opens a visual floor plan of your rooms and seats. This view is also available to partner organizations and reflects your current configuration.Frequently asked questions
If I rename a room, does the partner organization's room get renamed too?
If I rename a room, does the partner organization's room get renamed too?
Yes. The room name is a synced attribute. The partner organization sees the updated name after the next sync.
Can the partner organization add rooms to their copy of the center?
Can the partner organization add rooms to their copy of the center?
No. Room configuration is managed exclusively by your organization (the source). The partner organization’s copy reflects only what you have configured. Any local additions on the partner side may be overwritten on the next sync cycle.
Does changing a room's workflow step affect the partner organization's scheduled slots?
Does changing a room's workflow step affect the partner organization's scheduled slots?
The workflow step change is synced as a configuration update. Existing scheduled slots in the partner organization are not automatically cancelled. Review upcoming capacity slots in coordination with your partner if a workflow step reassignment would affect scheduling.
How do I know the sync has completed after a room change?
How do I know the sync has completed after a room change?
When you save a room change, your center’s status briefly shows Syncing. Once it returns to Active (or its previous status), the sync is complete and the partner organization’s copy has been updated.
