Add new badge
New badges can be assigned to people either via the Maintain menu badge portlet or via the ACP and clicking on the badge icon.
Note: You cannot allocate a new badge to a person who already has a valid badge. Any existing valid badge must be reclaimed first by clicking on the red reclaim badge icon in the Action column.
1. Select person
Either select the person via the ACP or the person combo at the top of the badge portlet. Use the photo and department information to ensure the correct person is selected.
1.1. If using ACP click badge icon
On the Access Control Panel click the badge icon to open up the badge portlet.
2. Click Add button
3. Enter new badge information
Enter the Badge Number (required), Version (required – this is usually 1 if this is the first version of the badge), Active Date for the badge (this will default to now), Expiry Date (this can be left blank).
4. Click save
Once the required data is entered click save and a badge record (with badge status = valid) will be displayed in the portlet.
