How do I add a new Resource Type?

A Resource Type allows you to tag your Resources, so that you only need to attach a Resource Type to a Service, and the system will know to allocate any of the Resources tagged with this Resource Type

ie Resources: 'Room 1' & 'Room 2' can both be tagged as:

Resource Type: 'Regular Room', then

If 'Regular Room' is linked to a Service, the system will allocate either 'Room 1' or 'Room 2'
