Resource Conflict

This module allows for users to book resources for use during events. For example, a student can book a microscope for use within their lab.

How does Resource Conflict work?

Handbook pages have been added to describe how to set up this module. As Resource Conflict is very flexible in addressing different use cases, please consider adding your own setup to the documentation for the benefit of new users. I've added a basic guide for Booking rooms for events which should act both as a template for other guides and as a good introduction to new users.

Resource Conflict requires three things to be set up within a content type.

1. The content type must have at least one nodereference (from CCK project) field.
2. The content type must be event-enabled or have an associated CCK date field.
3. The resource conflict option must be enabled, and at least one nodereference field must be selected. These will be the resources which will be checked for conflicts.

If there is a pre-existing event which conflicts in both time and resource, a form error is set and the user is forced to either book a different resource or change the event times.
