Use

In this section you define the real estate search request types for the real estate search.

Requirements

You already made the following settings in Customizing:

Standard settings

Activities

Create an RE search request type for all object types that you want to differentiate between when you search.

Assign the following to each RE search request type:

  1. Usage types

    Select the RE search request type. Choose Assignment of Usage Types and assign usage types to the rental objects that belong to the RE search request.
    Make sure that every usage type that you want to be able to search for using the real estate search is assigned to at least one RE search request type.

    Note that you are required to enter a measurement type for pooled spaces; otherwise the system does not generate any offered objects for pooled spaces. Using the measurement type of the pooled space, you can control which part of the pooled space is relevant for the RE search request type.
    Example:
    You have a pooled space, "Shopping Mall," for which warehouse space and retail space are defined. You can assign the "Shopping Mall" usage type with the "warehouse space" measurement type to the "Store" RE search request type. In addition, you can assign the "Store" usage type (for stores that are defined as rental units and can be rented as a whole) to the same RE search request type. You assign the "Shopping Mall" usage type with the "Warehouse Space" measurement type to a second RE search request type called "Warehouse." The measurement type that has to be entered for the usage type also has to be set up in the definition of the measurement types (so that it is possible to search for this measurement type, see below).

  2. Measurement Types
    1. Select RE search requests. Assign the measurements that you want to search for to them by choosing Definition of Measurement Types. Currently you can assign a maximum of four measurement types.
      2. For apartments, for example, you want to be able to search for the size of the apartment and the number of rooms. Then enter the appropriate measurement types in the order you want them to appear in the RE search request. Using the Logical Link field, you specify if all of the criteria have to be met during the search, or if it is enough if one of the criteria is met.
    2. Set the Show indicator for the measurement types that are most commonly searched for. These measurement types then appear on the first screen of the RE search request. For measurement types that you seldom search for, do not set the Show indicator.
    3. Define how tolerant the search should be using the % Upward Var. and % Downward Var. fields. For measurements, it makes sense to allow a higher upward variance than lower variance.
  3. Condition Types
    1. Assign the condition groups that you want to search for to the selected RE search requests by choosing Definition of Condition Types. Currently you can assign a maximum of four condition groups. You have to assign the condition types to the condition groups that you want to search for in Customizing. You could use the same condition groups here that you use in the Information System (for example, Basic Rent, Service Charges).
    2. Using condition purposes, you specify which conditions of the rental object should be considered. Normally you use vacancy rent or market rent.
      Recommendation:
      Choose the same condition purpose here that you set as a default value for the condition type in Customizing for condition groups.
    3. Specify the currency, the payment frequency and the calculation method, that you want for the RE search request. The system does not expect that these entries apply for the rental objects you search for. Instead, the system converts the values as needed at the time the offered objects are created. For example, it can convert a price per square foot into a fixed price. If you have condition groups with different calculation methods or payment frequencies for the same RE search request type, then the name of the condition group should indicate what kind of group it is.
      For example, if the calculation method is Price per Measurement, then you have to specify the measurement type that the calculation is based on.
    4. For the following indicators, you follow the same guidelines as for measurement types: Show, % Upward Var. and Logical Link. Note that by setting the logical link OR,it is possible to search for either a price per measurement or a fixed price. In this case, you should name the condition groups accordingly.
    5. If you want to copy the conditions from the last real estate contract, then set the Contract Conditions indicator.
  4. Fixtures and Fittings Characteristics

    Assign fixtures and fittings characteristics that are relevant for this RE search request type to the selected RE search request type. Choose Assignment of Fixt./Fittings Characteristics. You have to define fixtures and fittings characteristics first in Customizing for master data. You have to assign a sequence number to the fixtures and fittings characteristics in Customizing for the Real Estate Search.
