For the Digital Signage WebApp, specify whether you want to work with the simple mode (data from the booked rooms) or the extended mode (data from the booked monitor positions) of the WebApp per company.

The Simple mode (data from the booked rooms) allows you to enter texts for event rooms in the room list ("Signage" column) and to enter multiple booking times. However, the text entered is always the same for all views (room, floor, etc.). The monitors in use are determined by the assignment to the booked rooms ( Link rooms and monitor positions).
Example: Room 1 is booked from 12:00 - 14:00 with the signage text "Lunch buffet", from 15:00 - 16:30 with the signage text "Coffee break". In the room list for the event, the room is inserted twice with the respective times and remarks in the "Signage" column. The text entered appears in view 1 (room view at room 1), view 2 (floor view in the corridor) and view 3 (overview in the entrance hall). View 4 (All rooms per event) is not supported for simple mode.

The Extended mode (data from the booked monitor positions) allows more flexible control of individual monitors with individual texts as well as the targeted hiding of individual rooms in certain monitors. However, it requires the maintenance of signage data in a separate segment. Make it easier for users to select the correct monitor positions by first assigning monitor positions to rooms in the Equipment and then in the Suggetsed items tabs of the rooms.
Example: the monitors in room 1, on that floor and in the entrance hall are booked in the signage segment. The times and texts 12:00 - 14:00 "Lunch buffet" and 15:00 - 16:30 "Coffee break" appear on the monitor at the room, but only the time and the text 12:00 - 16:30 "Refreshments" for room 1 appear on the other two monitors. The additional View 4 (All rooms per event) shows a summary of all rooms booked for an event (rooms 1, 2 and 7) in extended mode.

achtung Important for Multi-Companies:
This mode can be selected per company. However, several companies can only share rooms and monitor positions if the same mode is used! It is not possible to display events from companies with different modes on the same monitor.
Example: Company 1 and 3 use the extended mode and can both use room 11 and the associated room monitor. Company 2 uses simple mode and is therefore not allowed to book room 11 or the associated monitor position.
