🏫 Building Manager Application: Buildings

The Building Manager application is a crucial system for managing and maintaining information on district facilities. It serves as the centralized platform for updating the operational status and static data for school buildings.

Its primary functions include:

• Building Information Management: Facilitating the addition of new buildings and the updating of existing building data and operational status.
• Financial Reporting Integration: Interacting with other modules to populate financial reports, which include calculations such as expenses per square foot.

• Primarily utilized by Munetrix employees for system updates, with accessibility extended to users holding administrative login credentials.
