Before you start
- Add your rooms and equipment first. See Add rooms and equipment.
Choose what the service needs
You can ask for two kinds of things, and a service can use both:- Resource categories: one resource from each category. Pick Rooms when any free room will do. Onsuki picks a free room at the location being booked.
- Specific resources: every one you add. Pick these when the service needs that exact room or machine, such as the room with the laser.

The Resources section of a service, with a category and a specific resource added
Good to know
- Resources apply to new bookings only. Appointments already booked keep what they had.
- A service can need up to 20 resources and categories together. Past that, Onsuki shows “Maximum number of resources reached for this service.”
- A category with nothing in it shows 0 resources and cannot be selected. Add a resource to it first.
- If a resource’s category is already on the service, that resource is not offered under Specific resources, because the category already covers it.
- A room or machine you add to a category later is used right away by every service that needs that category.
- With more than one location, a specific resource has to be at every location where the service is offered. If it is not, Onsuki stops you, for example “Barber chair isn’t at TITAN Conrad, so this service couldn’t be booked there.” Use a category instead, so each location uses its own.
- Don’t see Resources on a service? Courts and bays are set up under their own section. If you have no rooms or equipment yet, the section shows Set up resources.
- You cannot delete or archive a room or machine while a service still needs it. Remove it from the service under Resources first, or archive the service.
- If clients cannot find a time, check that the room or machine is free and has opening hours at that location. A time is not showing on my booking site walks through the checks.
