Using the same room tags more than once.

I was wondering if you could help me, I am setting up my companies standards on Revit and have come across an issue i can not seem to find an answer for. 
 
I have set up a room schedule of all the areas we need. So that I have a list to choose from when tagging areas/rooms.
however I have noticed that you can only use a room tag once and then it removes itself from the list. 
 
When planning a department store we use some tags more than once, for example till points, circulation. 
(same floor/same sheet) 
 
Is there a way of using a room tag more than once and for it not to come off the drop down list once used?
we also need these tags to have their areas added together when shown in the schedule.

What you are referring to is not a room tag, but the room itself. So when that room is placed it disappears from the list.

If you have multiple rooms of the same type, you will need to create multiple rooms of that type.

You could create multiple rooms of the same type in your template and delete the ones you do not need or create them in the project

Please mention Revit version, especially when uploading Revit files.

If I create multiple rooms with the same name will their areas add together within the schedule?

The areas I work with are departments within shops so have been using room separators to create the areas, is this the best way of creating department boundaries, I am new to revit so still finding my feet.

Use the "Department" parameter, of the Room Category.

For example:-

 

Room 1: Name=Till A, Department=Tills

Room 2: Name=Till B, Department=Tills

 

So the Department value can be the same across a number of Rooms- but the Room name must be unique.

I think this is what you are after?

Kind regards,
Ian

A little late to the party, but there is no need for Room Names to be unique, if you do not want them to be so.  And you can sort a Room Schedule by the Name parameter, uncheck the Itemize every instance parameter toggle on the Sorting/Grouping tab and, on the Formatting tab, set the Area parameter to Calculate totals to see the total area of all of the Rooms of the same name.2018-06-06_Revit2018_MultipleRoomsWithOneName_OneLineInScheduleWithTotalArea.png
