Click the Edit icon against the Employee’s name  

Click on the Resource Types tab

Use the checkboxes to select which Resource Type/s you would like to add to this Employee

Please note: if you have not created any Resource Types, this section will be blank

Click Save

2. Tag all employees that are available as an assistant with the Resource Type 'Assistant'
3. Add the 'Assistant' Resource Type to any Service that requires an assistant to be assigned
