3. Resource Group sheet
Complete the Resource Group sheet third (after the Countries and Location sheets). The data provided on the Resource Group sheet is mandatory for all Condeco booking solutions.
The purpose of the Resource Group sheet is to create groups in your locations to manage the booking rules for resources.
Good to know
- A group manages the booking rules for a collection of resources and can include both personal spaces and meeting spaces.
- A resource is a bookable space, such as a desk or a meeting room.
- Groups can include resources from multiple Locations but from only one Country.
- A resource can only belong to one group.
- Each group has its own set of booking rules.
- Create the minimum number of groups necessary to provide different booking rules. The more groups you create, the more maintenance is required.

Resource Group sheet showing the same group name for 3 different locations. Only 1 group will be created which will manage resources from all locations
Groups can be added to multiple locations via the DCS:
- A new group name entered in Col C creates a group in Condeco and adds it to the location in Col B.
- If the group name is entered in another row for a different location, the same group is added to the next location as well.

Condeco does not recommend editing Group names (Col C) once the subsequent sheets have been started. If Group names are edited and the new name is not reselected on the other sheets, the upload will fail.
