# Getting started ### Migrating from RBS 1.0 If your agency was invited to onboard to Resource Booking System (RBS) 2.0, it is especially important that you understand the following set up: 1. [Agency settings](https://help-admin.rbs.dwp.gov.sg/knowledge-base/agency-settings) 2. [Users](https://help-admin.rbs.dwp.gov.sg/knowledge-base/users) 3. [Resources](https://help-admin.rbs.dwp.gov.sg/knowledge-base/resources) Your data will be automatically transferred over from the previous version of RBS. This includes your agency's existing: * Agency settings * Users and user groups * List of resources * Presets assigned to resources, such as additional services, availability schedules, booking usage, and built-in amenities * Bookings, past and present
If you need help The GovTech Standard Products team will be conducting a series of onboarding sessions for agencies invited to onboard RBS 2.0. During this session, agency admins will learn: * the onboarding details including the migration timeline * basic features of RBS 2.0 If you need help after the onboarding session, [contact an application admin](https://go.gov.sg/rbsfeedback).
If you did not receive an invite The roll out of RBS 2.0 is in phases therefore the onboarding timeline differs for all agencies. GovTech Standard Products team will invite agencies for onboarding based on the features that are rolled out in different stage of releases. This helps us to gradually gather feedback, identify issues, and improve it along the way. \ If you're currently using RBS 1.0 and wish to try RBS 2.0, [contact an application admin](https://go.gov.sg/rbsfeedback).
