Key information

The reservation settings and parameters modules are closely related:

  • the settings will allow you to create notions
  • the parameters will allow you to specify these notions to apply your own rules

Synonym of "resource"

What is a resource made for?

Every resource is associated with a schedule so you can manage reservations. Resources are also used to specify all the rules (parameters) which apply to its use. Finally, it can indicate statistics of use.

Where can I manage resources?

Adding, editing and deleting

You can add, edit or delete a resource in the “reservation” section, then choose the “settings” module and the “resources” menu.

Defining the rules applied to a resource

You can define the rules applying to a resource in the “reservation” section, then in the “parameters” module and in all the menus.

Reserving a resource

You can reserve a resource in the “reservation” section, then in the “manage reservations” and in the “schedule” and “advanced reservation” menus. Resources can also be reserved in the members' area and via external services (ExtraClub iPhone application, ExtraClub WebApp, reservation centers using API).

Statistics on the use of resources

You can view or export statistics of use in the “reservation” section, under the “data” module in the “statistics” menu.

Characteristics of a resource

Category: The resource category is the same as a type of resource. It is used to arrange resources on the schedule.

Name: This is the name of the resource as it will be displayed on the schedule and on all the interfaces that can be used to make a reservation via Internet, iPhone, etc.lo

Public resource: If you check the “Yes” box, people will be able to see and check the availability of the resource on the schedule via Internet, iPhone, etc.

You can specify if the resource is available to members in the “Parameters” module. The “Public resource” option only means that it will be displayed on the schedule and on the list of available resources.

You can also set a reserved resource to “public” to show members that it is reserved.
