Companies are groups of Card Holders with something in common. The
Company
can signify a
group or department or tenant. Companies are defined within a Location so that access codes
may be grouped together for reports and searches. Company is not required data but a good
organizational tool.
There are two management tools specific to Company but both are completely optional. The first
is
Use it Or Lose it Days
. By setting a number here, all card holders assigned to this company
must use their card within that number of days or their card is de-activated. This can be used to
automatically manage lost cards and card holder attendance. See Warning Above before using!
The next tool is
Badge for those that are using the integral Photo ID Badging features of
WinDSX. This is where a Badge Template can be assigned to this Company so that all Card
Holders in this Company automatically select this Badge Template when their card is printed. At
the time of printing a different badge template can be chosen if required.
1. Enter the company or group
Name and complete all of the
appropriate fields below.
2. After entering
the appropriate
information Click
on
OK.
Warning:
Before
entering a number in
Use it or Lose it Days
“Save Last Card Read”
must be enabled under
Location/Yes-No
Options for that same
number of days or
longer.
