Visitor Management Roles and Permissions

Robin’s Visitor Management now supports more robust role-based permissions. Admins can allocate different types of permissions to users and roles, ensuring precise control over the organization’s visitor management process. Below is a comprehensive guide on how to utilize these permissions effectively: 

Assigning a role to administrate Visitor Management:

  • Admins can assign the Visitor Management Admin role to users, granting them full control over the Visitor Management product without providing overall product admin privileges. 
  • When this capability is selected, users will be able to view and manage all visits as well as create/manage documents, and create/manage visit types. 

 

Managing Building-Specific Visits:

  • View hosted visits 
    • Allows users to view visits they’re the host of in specific buildings while restricting access to visits in other buildings. 
    • Tip: this permission should typically be on for most individuals. 
  • Manage hosted visits
    • Allows users to create, update and delete visits where they’re the host. This can be restricted to individual buildings. 
    • Tip: this permission should typically be on for most individuals.
  • View all visits
    • Allows a user to view all visits in specific buildings while restricting access to visits in other buildings. 
    • Tip: this permission is useful for front desk attendants, building security and/or receptionist in order to have awareness of the number of visitors expected at any given time. 
  • Manage all visits
    • Allows a user to view, create, update and delete all visits in specific buildings while restricting access in other buildings. This includes visits where they’re not the host. 
    • Tip: this permission is useful for building admins or security admins that need full admin access to visitor management in some buildings but not others. 
  • Note: the permissions will respect the highest level of permissions the particular user has. For example, a global admin will automatically be able to manage all of the visitor management permissions and cannot be restricted to a particular building or visibility level as long as they remain a part of the admin role. 

How to assign Visitor Management Permissions:

  1. Admins can navigate to the Manage tab.

  2. Click Roles in the left panel and then select an existing role or create a new role to edit permissions.

  3. Scroll to the Visitor Management section.

  4. Specify which permissions are relevant in which buildings for this particular role.

  5. Add groups or specific members to the role.

  • Regularly review and update permissions to align with organizational changes. 
  • Train users on their assigned roles and permissions to ensure proper utilization.

Troubleshooting:

  • If users encounter issues accessing or managing visits, ensure their assigned roles have the necessary permissions. 
  • Double-check permissions settings to verify the correct configuration.
