Set up people and resources

Updated October 31, 2026 · Applies to Reserve ONE 1.34

Reserve ONE plans the staff and resources on Staff & resources. What it uses from each:

Field How Reserve ONE uses it
Job title A staff member's role, such as "Engineer". Projects and shifts state what they need per role. Without a job title, the role is "Staff". Rooms, equipment and vehicles count by their type.
Skills (comma-separated) Projects and shifts can ask for skills; only those who have them are suggested.
Location Where they work. The planner and shifts show one location at a time.
Working hours Their capacity. Planning outside them waits for the manager's approval.
Reports to (approves time off) Their manager, who approves allocations that put them over capacity, and their shift swaps.
