Adding upcoming visits to the system allows for efficient planning and organization, ensuring timely preparation and accommodation for incoming visitors. This feature is particularly useful for managing high-traffic periods or special events, as it enables the organization to anticipate visitor flow and allocate resources accordingly. By scheduling visits in advance, administrators can ensure that all necessary arrangements are in place, enhancing the overall visitor experience and minimizing potential disruptions.
Access Control
This page is accessible only to users who have the required policies, maintaining security and control over sensitive information. Authorized users can not only view but also edit upcoming visit details, providing the flexibility to update or correct information as necessary. This capability ensures that all scheduled visits are accurately recorded and reflect the most current data.
Dynamic Visitor Management
In addition to editing, users can add new visitors to the list of upcoming visits, facilitating seamless integration of new entries into the existing schedule. This feature supports the continuous management of visitor information, allowing for dynamic updates and ensuring that all upcoming visits are properly documented. By incorporating these functionalities, the system enhances the organization’s ability to manage visitor interactions effectively, improving both operational efficiency and visitor satisfaction.
Canceling Upcoming Visits
Once an upcoming visit is added to the system, it can also be canceled if necessary. However, cancellations are only allowed while the visit is in an "Open" status. This ensures that scheduled visits are not accidentally canceled after preparations are underway or once the visitor's arrival has been confirmed. By enabling this controlled cancellation functionality, the system allows for flexibility in managing visit schedules while maintaining the integrity of operational planning.
Locking Upcoming Visit Data
Once a visitor is added to the list of upcoming visits, the specific details of that upcoming visit become locked and cannot be modified. However, the visitor's information can still be edited, and their visit status can be updated or exited through the Manage Visitor page. This approach ensures that the overall schedule remains consistent and reliable, while still allowing for flexibility in managing individual visitor details as needed. By separating the management of visit schedules and visitor details, the system maintains the integrity of the planned visits while providing administrators with the necessary tools to manage visitor information effectively.
Notify Upcoming Visit
To ensure seamless communication and timely updates, notifications are automatically sent for upcoming visits scheduled for the current date. These notifications are directed to both:
The person who created the upcoming visit.
The individual being visited (To-Visit person).
Notifications are prominently displayed through the notification icon in the header. By clicking on the notification icon, users can quickly access and review the details of the visit. This functionality ensures that all relevant parties are informed, reducing the likelihood of missed visits or scheduling conflicts. It also enhances the system's overall responsiveness and reliability, supporting effective coordination and ensuring a smooth visitor experience.
