# How do I upload and use a floor plan in my design?

**Overview**
Uploading and using a floor plan in XTEN-AV allows accurate design creation by mapping products directly onto a visual layout. This ensures better planning, automatic inclusion of items in the Bill of Materials (BOM), and improved design efficiency.

* Start your design in X-DRAW using floor plans, and any products in your Floor Plan and it will be automatically included in your Bill of Material (BOM).

* To create an X-DRAW design using a floor plan, click the **X-DRAW** tab and select **Create Design** from the left menu.

| All the products added from the search on the floorplan will automatically be added to your bill of material but the products added to the BOM will not be added to your Floor plan.
