Go to ConsoleVisitors and select Invite visitor.
Enter the worker's Name, Mobile number and Company, and choose the Contractor visitor type (or your own type for contractors).
- Choose who they're coming to see and the Site.
- Turn on Over several days and choose the First day and Last day of the job.
- Under Pass rules, tick Only during daily hours and set the hours.
- On Growth and above, choose the Gates they may use, or tick Single use for one entry a day.
- Select Send invitation.
Good to Know
- The worker comes in each morning on the same pass, even when the gate's device is offline.
- On Pro and Enterprise, they can sign your waivers and site rules on their pass before the first day.
- Give the Contractor type default hours and gates in ConsoleSettingsVisitor forms, and every contractor pass starts with them.
- Invite each worker in a crew with their own pass, so the register and a roll call show each person.
If Something Goes Wrong
- The worker arrives outside their hours. The desk sees why and can choose Let them in anyway, which is recorded.
- The job runs longer. Open the visit, select Change and move the Last day.
