Resources
For general information on using Resources, refer to Using Resource Management and watch the resource management tutorial.
- Select the Resources required for your event by using the mover. Mark the Resources you wish to use in the Available Resources box, and then click on the > button so that they are moved to the Selected Resources box. You can mark multiple Items at a time by using a combination of shift and click or control and click.
- If your event requires setup and teardown time and you have multiple calendars, you can create setup and teardown time periods for your Resources by clicking on the Create Setup and Teardown Event button that appears in the resources section.
- If a conflict occurs, you will not be able to add the Resource until the conflicting Event is removed or has an exception scheduled.
- Resources pending approval will have the font-style set to bold italic.
- If a Resource has an assigned Approver, the request is sent to the Approver.
- If you are an Approver for the Resource, the Resource will automatically be marked as Approved.
- If the quantity on-hand for a resource is more than one, you'll be prompted to enter a quantity required for the event.

One of two things is happening.
- You have marked the Resource as shared. This means that multiple events can use it without conflict. To change this, go to the EDIT | RESOURCES screen and change the shared flag on the Resource that has the problem.
- You are looking at past dates. To aid performance, connectDaily only looks forward for conflicts. So, if you put two events in the past in, and both use the same resource, then a conflict won't be detected.
