VMS Administrator Console

Created by Robert Owen, Modified on Fri, 14 Apr, 2023 at 4:00 PM by Robert Owen

The VMS admin console offers a convenient way for administrators to manage visitor records, without the need for a full-featured software interface. The simple, tablet-based interface makes it easy to perform common tasks and ensures that the visitor management system remains up-to-date and accurate at all times.

Main Screen


On the main screen, visitors are displayed in a table sorted by their validity date. The columns in this table can be customized, but by default, they include Photo, Name, Cardcode, Valid, Status, Group, Visitor Signature, Badge, and Delete. If you would like to change the layout of the admin console, please contact support at [email protected].

To add a new visitor, click the "Add New Visitor" button. This will bring up a window that is divided into four sections: New Visitor Details, Admittance Date Time, Access Group, and Badge Code.

The "New Visitor Details" section includes fields for the visitor's photo, first name (compulsory), last name (compulsory), email, company, ID document, document number, company, host, and purpose of visit.
