Miscellaneous resource items are equipment and informational items that you need to charge for or add notes to appear on your event and function sheets. They can also be used to track inventory for items to prevent you from overbooking on them. Your items are organised into categories, which appear on the left-hand side. All items will belong to a category. When you are using your items, you can borrow from category to category, without having to re-create them.
