Resources

What are Resources?

Resources usually represent physical resources that are required by a Speaker to deliver their Session. They may include things like a laptop, Wi-Fi, tables, chairs, whiteboard etc.

They are used to help you ensure that your scheduled Sessions take place in Locations that have the required Resource. For example, if a session needs a lapel mic then the Session can only be scheduled in a Location that also has a lapel mic Resource.

How do I create and manage Resources?

  1. Navigate to Agenda Planning  >  Resources
  2. To create a new resource, click  on the right hand side of the screen
  3. Enter a name for the Resource
  4. If you have created Sessions ,  Labels or Locations , you can associate them with the new Resources here too
  5. To manage this Resource, navigate into the Resource by clicking on the name

How do I add Resources to Sessions?

  1. Navigate to Agenda Planning  >  Resources
  2. Click  next to the Resource you want to add a Session to
  3. In the Session column, you can search and choose the Session you want to add the Resource too

How do I add Resources to Locations?

  1.    Navigate to Agenda Planning  >  Resources
  2. Click  next to the Resource you want to add a Location to
  3. In the Location column, you can search and choose the Location you want to add the Resource too

Do Resources have to be linked to Locations?

If you have a Resource that is available everywhere (for example, Wi-Fi) you have two options:

  • Either: Edit the Resource and switch the option Schedule sessions needing this resource in these locations off. This will remove the scheduling requirement for the resource.
  • Or: Add the resource to every location. Do this by editing the ‘Locations’ for the resource and clicking ‘Select All’

How do I limit the number of Sessions using a Resource?

You might want to limit the number of Sessions that require a particular Resource. This is particularly useful if the resource is consumable, say a license for service such as a production company. To set this limit do the following:

  1.    Navigate to Agenda Planning  >  Resources
  2. Click on the name of the Resource you want to edit
  3. Edit the value for ‘Max Sessions’

As you schedule your event, Lineup Ninja will be checking to ensure that not more than this number of this Sessions are using this resource.

How do I limit the number of Sessions using a Resource at the same time?

You may have limits on how many times a resource can run at the same time. For example, you might only be able to provide 2 laptops at any one time.

  1.    Navigate to Agenda Planning  >  Resources
  2. Click on the name of the Resource you want to edit
  3. Edit the value for ‘Concurrency’.

As you schedule your event Lineup Ninja will be checking to ensure that not more than this number of this resource are in use at the same time.
