3. Add and Modify Users

From the top menu, click on Operation, then Edit Users.

Top Menu Edit Users

Press the Add button near the top right of the next screen to add a new user.

Add New User

Enter the user’s name. Some sites assign a resident names, while others prefer to use a street address (particularly for large communities and apartments.)

Select card type. This dropdown menu may contain levels such as Resident, Administrator, Vendor, etc.

Enter a card number: Each card or keyfob has a 2-digit facility code, followed by a five digit unique identifier. You will usually find this code printed on the keyfob, keycard, or vehicular RFID sticker, or on the packaging for that ID.

End Date. This is an automatic expiration time for the credential. Usually, the day after a resident’s lease ends.

Flag Lost / Stolen: Do not simply delete lost or stolen cards; tag them here. In either case the card cannot obtain access, but if a card is marked as lost, you can view that card activity in reports and track such attempts.

Set access level: e.g. Resident, Employee, Manager, Vendor, etc. These levels can be set up under Configuration > Access Levels (see section #7 on this page). An access level is basically a group of time-dependent permissions for each access controlled door in the site. So a Resident access level might permit access to the exterior gates 24/7 and amenities from 6 am to 10 pm, where a Vendor might not have access to the amenities at all. It’s all up to you.

User Photo (optional): Click the blank user icon, then upload a photo or take a picture with a connected webcam.

User Information: Press the Flip icon at the bottom left corner to add custom information, such as address, contact information, and more. All labels can be customized by double clicking on the label name.

User Information

 

Editing a User

It’s easy to edit a user's credentials. Find the user to edit with the Users page search feature (under Operation > Users.)

You can search for users by user name, card number (if known), or department.

User Page

Double click on the user name. Then you will again be at the user's information. To add a keycard, click on the + icon beneath the user's existing card.

If you are issuing a user a new card because their previous card was lost, do not delete the previous card from the system. Simply mark it lost and add the new card number. That way, if someone attempts to use the lost keyfob, the system will recognize the card, deny access, and optionally send you an alert (ask the HOA Technology care team about setting up custom reports!)
