Resource Conflict

deviantintegral - September 19, 2007 - 18:46

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?

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

The content type must have at least one nodereference (from CCK project) field.
The content type must be event-enabled.
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.
