Required resources — the service books the room at the same time as you
A service can require a room, a station or equipment in order to be booked.
The problem
Some services need more than your time: a room, a specific piece of equipment.
Without this link, nothing stops the service from being booked while the room is already taken elsewhere.
A service can require one or more resources; availability takes it into account.
Without Kagenda
The service gets booked without checking whether the required room is free.
With Kagenda
The service requests the room; the slot disappears if it's already taken.
