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.

Single Visit

This is the most common case.

  1. If the visit starts NOW: Today's date & time are pre-selected.   No further entry is needed.
  2. If it occurs LATER: 
    1. Open the Date/Time selection window by clicking the calendarcalendarBtn.png icon.
    2. Select the visit's Start Date.
    3. Select the Time of the Visit. 
    4. Ensure that Repeat is set to "None(run once)"

Multiple Visits
