Visitor Repeat Options
Overview
The visitor management system provides for the pre-registration of visitors. It is highly desirable to pre-register as many visitors as possible: it speeds not only their own processing upon arrival at the visitor desk, but also the processing of all other visitors. The Visitor Invitation module provides a fast and convenient way of pre-registering visitors.
