Many new functions are available with the May 2019 release! Among other things, you can now easily record resources such as cars, vans, rooms and parking spaces. Read on to find out how to record your resources.
Record employees
This existing function does not change much. Go to your general settings under "Resources/Employees". Enter the booking type "Employee" for your employee. Then maintain the skills and availability of your employee so that they can be booked online. You can find the step-by-step instructions for creating an employee here!
Capture resources such as cars and rooms
Calenso now allows you to make your resources bookable online. If you want to rent out parking spaces or meeting rooms, for example, you can enter them under "Resources/Employees" in your general settings. Create a new resource and enter all the required data. Don't forget to define the booking type. Below you can see an example of how the settings for a room could look.
To make your resource bookable, you also need to define the skills and availability. This sounds a bit strange in the context of a room or car, but it is necessary for them to be displayed online. In the availabilities, your resource will be available for selection alongside your employees. Define there when, for example, a room or a car can be rented. These times are available to the customer in the online reservation. In the skills section, you define the services for which your resource can be booked. For example, you can define your own service as a "room reservation" and then assign it to your resource's skills. You can find detailed step-by-step instructions on how to create a resource here!
