In Ivanti Neurons for Facilities you can add a scheduled shutdown and apply the shutdown to a location, building, floor, room, cubicle or space.

When you add a scheduled shutdown at location level, the location and all facilities associated to the location are disabled for bookings. For example, if you have building associated to the location, no bookings for the building or it's associated floors, rooms, etc, can be made. Any existing bookings are automatically canceled.

The same also applies when you add a scheduled shutdown at building and floor level, bookings are disabled for all of the building's or floor's associated facilities, and any existing bookings are automatically canceled.
