Assigning a card to an employee

Added

Once a card is active in the system, you link it to an employee. You can do this two ways — via the employee or via the card. Both reach the same result.

Prerequisite: the card must be active in the system. If it isn't, see Adding a new card to the system first.

Method 1 — via the employee

Open Administration → Access cards and stay on the By employee tab.

  1. On the By employee tab, find the employee in the list.
  2. Click + in their row — a popup with available cards opens.
  3. In the popup, click + next to the card you want to assign it to that employee.

Assign-card popup — search and a list of available cards with a plus button
The popup after clicking +: ① click + next to an available card to assign it

Method 2 — via the card

You can reach the same result from the By card tab: edit the card in the list (inline) and attach an employee to it.

  1. Switch to the By card tab and find the card.
  2. Click edit (pencil) in the card's row — the row switches to inline editing.
  3. In the Employee name field, pick an employee from the dropdown.
  4. Click Save.

Multiple devices and physical access control

A client can have multiple devices. A single card doesn't have to be active or assigned on every device at once — you choose which devices the card is valid on.

Because of this, the system can also be used for physical access control: the device works with electric locks, so you can control exactly who may pass through which door.
