Explanation

To configure Room1 as a bookable desk pool, you must first have a resource account associated with the space. The resource account is the identity in Azure AD/Entra ID that represents the bookable resource and enables calendar-based booking via Exchange. Without a resource account for Room1, there is nothing to configure in Teams admin center or Exchange for the desk pool. A Teams Rooms Basic license (option B) applies to shared room devices, not desk pools. Calendar processing rules (option C) are configured on the resource mailbox, which is part of the resource account-so the account must exist first. Creating a resource account for the desk pool (option D) comes after the room's own account is established, as the desk pool is a sub-resource of the room.
