Defining Resource Groups
You can define and update resource groups to group similar resources that help you plan capacity and easily generate bill of resource information.
To define resource groups:
1. Navigate to the CRP_RESOURCE_GROUPS QuickCodes window from Setup in the Navigator.
2. Enter a unique resource group Code.
You can define a maximum of 250 resource groups, and you cannot change the values in this field after you commit a resource group. To remove an obsolete resource group you can either disable the code, enter an end date, or change the meaning and description to match a replacement code.
3. Enter a descriptive Meaning of the resource group.
4. Enter an extended Description of the resource group.
You can display the description along with the meaning to give more information about your resource group.
5. Enter the effective date From which the resource group becomes active.
You cannot use the resource group before this date. If you do not enter a start date, your resource group is valid immediately.
6. Enter the date on which this resource group expires.
Note: You cannot use the resource group after this date. Once a resource group expires, you cannot assign this resource group to resources, but can query records that already use the resource group. If you do not enter an end date, your resource group is valid indefinitely.
7. Check Enabled to indicate whether the resource group is enabled.
If you do not check Enabled, you cannot assign any resources to your resource group, but can query records that already use this resource group.
