Add a Resource

System managers can add new resources (aircraft, instructor, flight training device, other) to the system:

1. Select Manage Tab.
2. Select Resource Management.
3. Next to Add a Resource, select resource type.
4. Fill in the fields on the Create Resource screen and continue. When entering a pilot/instructor as a resource, pay particular attention to the choices offered if the system says the "Resource name is already on file". When two staff resources have the same last name, the system offers to create an alternative ID. Ignoring this option will cause incorrect linkage of the records.
5. Continue through the process entering all the requested information including Date first available and Use for rental / instruction. In order for a resource to show up on the schedule, it must have a first available date and must be marked as use for rental allowed. Other uses may be allowed as well.
6. After creating the resource the Resource Data Selection page will appear. From this page specific resource data can be entered and updated.

For detailed instructions regarding adding general staff to the system, please read Grant Staff Level Access.
