# Confirm a resource plan

As a resource manager, you can confirm or block the resources after a resource plan is requested. The resource plan must be in the Requested state to be confirmed.

## Before you begin

**Important:** Resource plans in Resource Management will no longer be available for new customers from future releases.

You're encouraged [migrate your existing resource plans](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/it-business-management/resource-management/rsrc-plans-rsrc-asgmnts.md) to work on resource assignments which offers more flexibility and [Create resource assignments and operation resource assignments in Resource Management Workspace](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/it-business-management/resource-management/create-ra-rmw.md) using Resource Management Workspace or Project Workspace.

Resource managers can [view and assign the unassigned resource assignments](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/it-business-management/resource-management/allocate-resources-rmw.md) using Resource Management Workspace.

Role required: resource\_manager

## About this task

You can modify or [cancel a resource plan](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/it-business-management/resource-management/t_CancelAResourcePlan.md) that is in the Confirmed state.

For a resource plan with the resource type as group, you can confirm resources only if the specified group has active members.

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Resource** > **Resource Plans** > **Requested**.

2.  Open the resource plan that you want to confirm and select **Confirm**.


## Result

The resource plan moves to the Confirmed state and [soft allocations](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/it-business-management/resource-management/r_AllocatingResources.md) are created.
