Visit Time Settings
Learn how to set a Time in Building Limit and Auto-checkout Time.
District and Building Admins can set up the Visit Time Settings. To access the Visit Time Settings page and set the needed settings, follow the below steps:
- Log into Visitor Management as a District Admin or Building Admin
- Navigate to the Admin Settings by clicking the key icon on the side navigation menu
- Navigate to the Visit Time Settings tab
- Set Time in Building Limit
- Note: Users can set this limit so that front office staff will see when visits for staff, substitutes, visitors and volunteers have surpassed the Time in Building limit threshold.
- Set Auto-checkout Time
- When enabled, Visitor Management will review all visitors, substitutes, staff, and volunteers that are checked in after the designated time. Around midnight, VM will auto-check them out with the Auto-checkout timestamp set by the Admin
- For example, if the Auto-checkout time is set for 5:00 PM, VM would check for anyone still showing as checked into the building close to midnight, and would then mark them auto-checked out at 5:00 PM.
- When enabled, Visitor Management will review all visitors, substitutes, staff, and volunteers that are checked in after the designated time. Around midnight, VM will auto-check them out with the Auto-checkout timestamp set by the Admin
Prevent School Overrides
If all schools will have the same Time in Building Limit and Auto-checkout Time, then the Prevent School Overrides setting needs to be toggled on. If all schools will not have the same Time in Building Limit and Auto-checkout Time, then the Prevent School Overrides setting needs to be toggled off. Toggling this setting off allows Building Admins to set their needed Time in Building Limit and Auto-checkout Time.
