You can assign an Assignment priority to [Booking pages](https://help.staticso2.com/scheduleonce/event-types-booking-pages/booking-pages/introduction-to-booking-pages "Introduction to Booking pages") within a [Resource pool](https://help.staticso2.com/scheduleonce/master-pages-resource-pools/resource-pools/introduction-to-resource-pools "VIDEO: Introduction to Resource pools") that uses [Pooled availability with priority](https://help.staticso2.com/scheduleonce/master-pages-resource-pools/resource-pools/pooled-availability-with-priority "Distribution method - Pooled availability with priority") as the distribution method. The Assignment priority determines which Booking page will receive a booking when multiple Booking pages are available at the time selected by the Customer.

In this article, you’ll learn about using Assignment priority.

## How Assignment priority works

[Section titled “How Assignment priority works”](#how-assignment-priority-works)

When a Customer selects a time to schedule a meeting, OnceHub first checks which Booking pages are available. Then, the booking is assigned to the available Booking page with the highest Assignment priority.

If there are multiple Booking pages with the same Assignment priority, the booking is assigned to the Booking page with the longest idle time. This is the Booking page which has not received a booking for the longest amount of time.

## Requirements

[Section titled “Requirements”](#requirements)

To edit the Assignment priority of Booking pages in a Resource pool, you must be a [OnceHub Administrator](https://help.staticso2.com/account-administration/user-management/user-roles-overview "Differences between Administrator and Member").
