Room Capacity for Support Space such as Conference rooms should not be included in Capacity
When calculating capacity for a building / floor, there is overlap in how the capem field is used. If the space is non-occupiable, such a s a conference room but there is a number in the capem field, this is included in the capacity of the floor. Many times this field is used to store how many seats the room has for reservation purposes, and should not affect the the floor capacity.
Either a separate field for this capacity, of modification of how space console and other views count capacity to exclude the conference type spaces.
select rmcat where occupiable = yes, then the total of all capem

It would be great if a new field was added as a standard for this kind of capacity. I find I need to add it to most clients to track this, both in a corporate (for meeting rooms) and for Academic (classrooms and auditoriums)

We use field 'stations' for this and classroom spaces.

We created cap_rm to cater for capacity not employees such as boardrooms/canteens.
