Configure resource types

Follow the guidelines below to configure resource types.

  • Code: Enter a code name for the resource type. We suggest that it be short and in capitals. It won't show in the Calendar.
  • Name: Enter a name for the resource type for all languages. One of them will show in the Calendar according to the display language. If you only use one language, enter the same name for all languages.
  • Description: Enter a description for the resource type for all languages. If you only use one language, enter the same description for all languages.
  • Color: Select the color for the resource type using this drop-down menu.
  • Multiple selection: Turn on this toggle to allow multiple resources to be included in this resource type. They can then be selected simultaneously in the Appointment window. Otherwise, turn it off to only allow one resource by resource type.
