Resources
Resources are used to specify items such as people, equipment or buildings. You can use Resources within your organization model to identify such items and define how they relate to Organization Units and Positions.
When you create a resource, you can assign various properties to it.
See "Resource Properties" in the TIBCO Business Studio Modeling User's Guide.
A resource can be assigned a Resource Type if Resource Types are defined in your schema, and will have any Attributes defined for that type. For example, you may want to define attributes of FirstName and Surname for a Resource that represents an employee, or TelephoneNumber for both an employee and for another type of Resource that represents a meeting room. See Schemas for more information about Schemas and Resource Types.
The following Resource Types are provided in the default Schema:
- Durable Resource Type. You can use this for items like buildings which have a long lifespan.
- Consumable Resource Type.
- Human Resource Type. A Human Resource Type must always be present in the Schema, and there can be only one Human Resource Type present in the schema.
See "Creating a Schema" in the TIBCO Business Studio Modeling User's Guide for details of creating a Schema with or without using the standard Types.
