These reserve-able resources setup pertains directly to Resource Reservation Events. These event types are frequently used for applications like booking party rooms or things like squash courts or tennis courts.
Where resources to be booked are all available on the same schedule, which is a frequently requirement, associating multiple resources with a reservation event allows all five resources to be booked concurrently. For example, an interface like the one below would expose to the person registering the fact that there were five squash courts and it would show separately which courts were booked and which were available.
Another approach to handling resources, is to specify a capacity for each time slot in the setup schedule.
This would allow us to show a single resource called "squash court", and if we allowed up to five registrations per time slot, visitors to the website would see a single squash court, but we could accept up to give registrations before the system showed it as "full".
Below is what a presented resource reservation schedule looks like from a user's perspective.
In this simple example, the resource we're offering is a party room that we make available four times per week on a recurring schedule. We're only allowing one birthday party to be booked in the room at a time since in this example there is only a single party room.
