# Setting up Resources

Resources refer to any special equipment or room needed to perform services, such as pedicure chairs, massage rooms, etc. The system keeps track of resource availability, and won’t book an appointment that requires a resource if it's already in use.

**Start by going to:**\
Manage > Advanced Settings > Manage (under Resources)

## Creating a New Resource

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

## Click "New Resource Group"

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

## Choose the **# of Resources** available

Choose from the drop-down.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

## Click Create

{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

*Once the Resource is created, you will be brought back to the main Resources page.*

## Assigning Resources to Services

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

## Remain on the main Resources page

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

## Click the blue "Assign them to your Services" link

Click the link at the top.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

## Choose the Resource

Next to each Service that requires a resource, choose its Resource from the drop-down.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

## Click Save

Click Save at the bottom.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Only one resource can be assigned to each service.
{% endhint %}

## Editing Resources

You can change the name of the Resource Group as a whole, change the name of individual Resources within each group, and add additional resources to particular groups.

* To add more resources to a particular group, click the ![rtaImage (1)](/files/85c76c1435cee939c8a108f017e3b4d37a8cde81)![](https://support.rosysalonsoftware.com/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/rtaImage-Aug-19-2022-12-38-36-73-PM) icon.
* To rename the **Resource Group** itself, click the large name at the top of the box, then adjust the name and click Save.
* To rename the resources *within* the group, click the name of the resource itself, adjust the name, and click Save.

{% hint style="info" %}
You cannot delete Resource Groups, but you can delete all resources within a group as long as there are no services assigned to them and no future appointments assigned to them.
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://support.rosysalonsoftware.com/advanced-settings/setting-up-resources.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
