# Creating a Batch from the Resource View

As previously mentioned, it is possible to create a Batch from the its entity page. However, it is highly advisable to create it from the Resource View. This approach provides a clearer view of all available Materials and their attributes, making the selection process more efficient. Before proceeding, ensure that [[tutorials-creating-batch-from-entity#step-1-configure-a-batch-resource|Step 1 (Configuring a Batch Resource)]] and [[tutorials-creating-batch-from-entity#step-2-define-the-resource-capacity|Step 2 (Defining Resource Capacity)]] from the [[tutorials-creating-batch-from-entity]] have been completed.

## Create a Batch

After [[tutorials-creating-batch-from-entity#step-1-configure-a-batch-resource|Configuring a Batch Resource]] and [[tutorials-creating-batch-from-entity#step-2-define-the-resource-capacity|Defining a Batch Resource]], you are set to Create a Batch from the Resource View.

When the **Resource** has the Scheduling Type of `Batch`, the left panel displays four options: Dispatch List, Planned Batches, Batch at Resource, and Processed Material. TThese options allow an effective Batch management.

For this example, select three Materials (`Cookie C1`, `Cookie D1`, and `Cookie A6`) and select the **Create Batch** button on the top ribbon, as shown below.

The **Create Batch** wizard appears, with the Resource and Step already pre-filled. Optionally, you can add a Name, a Description and a Priority.

After selecting **Next**, the wizard will display all pre-selected Batch Materials. Confirm the selection meets your specific requirements.

Selecting **Next** again allows adding **Containers**, similar to the process outlined in [[tutorials-creating-batch-from-entity#step-3-create-a-batch]]. Once the necessary details are provided, select **Create** to complete the operation.

Once the Batch is created, it can be managed directly from the Resource View. For more information, see [[tutorials-managing-batch-resource-view]].
