# Admin setup

## Admin setup

This guide covers the initial setup required before users can start requesting services with their bookings.

### 1. Configure service categories

Service categories group related service items, such as Catering, AV Equipment, or Room Setup.

**How to create a service category:**

1. Go to Manage → Services → Service Categories
2. Click Add Category
3. Enter the following details:
   * Name – e.g., "Catering"
   * Buildings – one or multiple buildings where this category is available
   * Description (optional) – internal or admin notes
4. Click Save

You can edit or delete categories at any time.

### 2. Create service items

Service Items are the actual services users can request (e.g., "Coffee & Tea," "Projector," "Room Setup Assistance").

**How to create a service item:**

1. Go to Manage → Services → Service Items
2. Click Add Item
3. Enter:
   * Name – e.g., "Coffee & Tea Service"
   * Category – select one (each item belongs to one category only)
   * Buildings – select the buildings linked to that category
   * Unit Price (optional) – for reference or internal billing
   * Description (optional) – details about the service
4. Click Save
