Resources and grouping

[Ana]

Hi! There is a radscheduler whose datasource is a list of appointments, each of them having one or more resources. (There is many-to-many relationship between appointments and resources). Also, there is a checkboxlist of resources, used for binding resurce type of a scheduler. How can I group scheduler by that resource type, to look like in your example on http://demos.telerik.com/ASPNET/Prometheus/Scheduler/Examples/ResourceGrouping/DefaultCS.aspx? (I would like it to have as many columns as number of boxes cheked in checkboxlist). As I understod, relationsheep should be one-to-many or I have to set some appointmentProviders in webconfig?

This is what a have:

<

telerik:RadScheduler runat="server" ID="RadScheduler1" Skin="<%$ AppSettings: SchedulerSkin%>"Width="750px" StartEditingInAdvancedForm="false" SelectedView="MonthView" DataKeyField="ID"DataSubjectField="Subject" DataStartField="Start" DataEndField="End" DataRecurrenceField="RecurrenceRule"DataRecurrenceParentKeyField="RecurrenceParentID" EnableEmbeddedSkins="true" OverflowBehavior="Expand">
<ResourceTypes><telerik:ResourceType TextField="Naziv" KeyField="ResursID" Name="Resurs"/>
</ResourceTypes></telerik:RadScheduler>

I bind scheduler in code behind, and I want to do that with the resource type to, as simplier as it can be. Please help. Thanks,
Ana

Hi Ana,

RadScheduler supports Resource Grouping only by one Resource at a time. The only exception is the special 'Date' Resource. For example, if you set the GroupBy property of the Scheduler to "Date,User", Appointments will be grouped by Date and by the 'User' Resource.

However, you could achieve a similar to the 'multi-resource grouping' functionality in the a similar manner as shown in this example. That is, you could have a CheckBoxList and upon checking of the various options load data for the corresponding selected Resources.

I hope this will be useful.

Hello Alan,

 
You can refer to our Multiple Resources demo where you can group by adding GroupBy="Room" for example and this help topic where is given more information about the provider that supports Multi-valued Resources.

Hope this will be helpful.

Hi Plamen,

Thank you very much for your reply, I checked the link you posted. But there is no place to mention group by multiple resources.  For example, GroupBy="user, room".

Please let me know if Scheduler control supports the GroupBy Multiple Resource.

Thanks
Alan

Hello Alan,

Grouping by more than one ResourceTypes at the same time is currently not supported in RadScheduler.
