Resource Management
Resources represent the bookable entities in your organization — rooms, tables, chairs, equipment, or any physical or logical unit that professionals use during their shifts.
Creating a Resource
- Navigate to Resources from the admin nav
- Click Create Resource
- Fill in the resource details:
| Field | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Name | Yes | Display name (e.g., “Table 1”, “Room A”) |
| Description | No | Additional details about the resource |
| Location | No | Physical location (e.g., “Building B, Floor 2”) |
| Quantity | Yes | Number of units available (default: 1) |
| Professionals Per Unit | Yes | Max professionals that can be assigned per unit (default: 1) |
| Active | Yes | Whether the resource is available for booking |
- Click Save
Understanding Capacity
Resource capacity is determined by two fields:
Quantity
The number of physical units of this resource. For example:
- 5 tables → quantity = 5
- 1 conference room → quantity = 1
Professionals Per Unit
The maximum number of professionals that can book a shift on each unit at the same time. For example:
- 1 professional per table → professionalsPerUnit = 1
- 2 professionals per room → professionalsPerUnit = 2
Total capacity = quantity × professionalsPerUnit
The system enforces capacity limits when professionals attempt to book shifts. If all units are occupied for a given time period, the shift cannot be created.
Resource List
The resources page shows all resources with:
- Name, description, and location
- Capacity settings (quantity, professionals per unit)
- Active/inactive status
- Quick actions (edit, delete)
Editing a Resource
- Find the resource in the resource list
- Click the edit action
- Modify any fields
- Save your changes
Changing capacity settings does not affect existing shifts. Only future shift bookings will be validated against the new capacity.
Deleting a Resource
- Find the resource in the resource list
- Click the delete action
- Confirm the deletion
Deleting a resource is a soft-delete. Existing shifts and bookings on this resource remain intact but no new shifts can be created.
Assigning Resources to Events
After creating resources, you need to assign them to events before professionals can book shifts. See Event Management → Assigning Resources for details.
