Resources are your planners. Resources can be your employees, machines and/or rooms. Resources are linked to stages in the planning board. This way you know exactly which resource is available at which stage. Because a resource has a schedule, the hours of the resource are linked to the stage in the planning board. The total availability of resources on a stage in a day is called capacity.
Because vPlan knows employees, machines and rooms as a type of resource, it is possible to link 3 types of capacity to a stage. In this way people, machines and spaces can all work in one stage, each with its own capacity.
Go to the settings and click on "Resources" under Configuration.
A new resource can be added easily and quickly. In the settings go to "Resources" and click "+" icon behind Resources.

In addition, indicate a possible start date. You enter the end date when the resource is no longer available from that date.
