Hi Geoffrey, We work with a good number of spaces renting similar resources, like shared photo and video studios, kitchens, lab equipment and maker tools. Many of them allow you to, not only book the resource itself, but also request or buy additional items which go with the booking. Many of these items are limited in the number of them which can be booked at any given point.
As you mention, in the meeting room world, this happens when rooms bookings come with things like flip-charts, catering or other additional services to the room itself. Each of these items has a stock in the system, which handles how many of them can be booked at any given point. This is who the users see it: <https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-nZq_uoT1Yk8/Vkt23E8K6nI/AAAAAAAAF2s/_3RXRv5SYyA/s1600/2015-11-17_19h49_34.png> More details on nexudus.com.
