# What are facilities and spaces?

> Ice sheets, facilities with spaces, and bookable venues are three different records — what each one is for, and how a space's Access and Order work in both views.

<Note>
  **Must know**

  * **Ice sheets** (Settings → Club Settings → Ice sheets) are what draws, Today's Ice columns and the TV boards use.
  * **Facilities** and their **Spaces** (My Organization → Facilities) are location records — address, hours, equipment, staff notes. A space is *not* what members book.
  * **Bookable venues** (Registrations → **Venues & Rentals**) are what members rent. A venue can be tied to a sheet with **Ice sheet position (optional)** so its bookings appear in the right Today's Ice column.
  * Each space has an **Access** (Public, Private, or the club-wide setting) and an **Order**, editable in both views. A venue linked to a space takes its Access: a private space hides the venue's bookings from the public. See [Who can see a venue's bookings?](/club/bookings-and-todays-ice/who-can-see-a-venues-bookings).
  * Also available in the classic view: the spaces appear as CCM's **Facility Calendar - Resources** list, with **New**, **Edit**, **Publish**, **Unpublish** and **Delete**, CCM's **Sort Table By** and 20 resources a page.
  * A club migrated from CCM finds each CCM resource here as a space, under one facility named after the club.
</Note>

CCM's `com_facilitycalendar` had one idea of a "resource". Uplifter Curling separates three things, and knowing which is which saves confusion:

| Record | Where | Used for |
| - | - | - |
| **Ice sheet** | Club Settings → **Ice sheets** | numbering the sheets for draw generation, Today's Ice columns, TV boards, score sheets |
| **Facility / Space** | My Organization → **Facilities** | the building and its rooms: address, phone, operating hours, equipment, staff, notes |
| **Bookable venue** | Registrations → **Venues & Rentals** | anything members reserve and pay for — a sheet for a private rental, the lounge, a coach's time |

**Adding a facility.** On **My Organization → Facilities** click **Add Facility**. The **Add New Facility** sheet asks for **Facility Name** (required), **Street Address**, **City**, **Province/State**, **Postal Code**, **Country**, **Phone**, **Email**, **Square Footage**, **Max Capacity**, **Description**, **Status** (Active / Inactive / Maintenance) and **Default Facility**. The default facility's address, phone and email are what your public website footer shows.

**Inside a facility.** Tabs are **Overview**, **Activity**, **Spaces**, **Equipment**, **Staff** and **Notes**. **Add Space** takes a **Space Name** (for example "Sheet A"), and each space has **Availability Hours**. Operating hours for the building are edited on the Overview under **Operating hours → Edit hours**. Note that **My Organization → Schedules** is staff shift scheduling, not opening hours.

**Access and Order.** **Add Space** and a space's edit dialog both have **Access** — **Club-wide setting**, **Public** or **Private** — and **Order**. A space left on **Club-wide setting** follows **Show sheets publicly** under Club Settings → Ice sheets; a space with its own value shows a **Public** or **Private** badge on its card. Order sets where the space lists: lower numbers first, and a blank order lists after the ordered ones, by name. Access decides who can see the bookings of any venue linked to this space, through the **Resource** picker on the venue form. A private space's venue is hidden from the public on the club site, while members, guardians and staff still see it. A space with no venue linked to it is not shown on the club site, so its Access has no effect there. See [Who can see a venue's bookings?](/club/bookings-and-todays-ice/who-can-see-a-venues-bookings).

## The classic Resources list

In the classic view, **My Organization → Facilities** is CCM's **Facility Calendar - Resources** screen: every space, grouped under its facility, with **ID**, **Status**, **Name** and **Access** columns.

* **New** or clicking a name opens the resource form: name, capacity, **Published**, **Access** (**Club setting**, **Public** or **Private**), **Ordering** (lower numbers list first) and description. **Save** or **Save & Close**.
* **Sort Table By** — **Name** (the default), **Ordering**, **Status**, **Access** or **ID** — with **Ascending** or **Descending**.
* The number-of-items box offers 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 50, 100 or **All**; 20 is the default, with a pager (**Prev**, **Next**, *Page 1 of 2*) when there are more.
* **ID** is the resource's place in the club's own order, so it stays put when you re-sort. A resource on **Club setting** prints the club's current value in the Access column.
* **Access** decides whether the public sees the bookings of a venue linked to the resource. The form's hint says: "Who can see this resource. Leave it on the club setting to follow the one switch in Club settings."
* **Import Sheets from Curling Club Manager** has nothing to do here: your ice sheets are already club settings.

## Resources from a CCM import

A migrated club's CCM resources arrive twice, once as each role needs them: as a **space** on this screen (under one facility named after the club, with CCM's published state, access and order — CCM's Registered or Special access reads **Private**), and as a **bookable venue** for the calendar and rentals. The import links each venue to its space, so the space's Access decides who sees the venue's bookings, as CCM's resource access did. They are still separate records: renaming or unpublishing a resource here does not rename or close its calendar venue, so change both if you need to. Today's Ice still shows each resource as one column.
