Card

On the Card tab, system administrators can migrate their EntraPass system to enhanced user management where users are managed by their user name as well as their card number (s) . Each card holder is handled by user name and has up to 5 different numbers . This allows for creating cards without assigning a card number to the new cards. For more information, see Issuing a new card in enhanced user management environment

Note: This option is used with EntraPass web for card management.

Enabling the migrate to enhanced user management is NOT REVERSIBLE through the software. However, when the system is migrating data, a backup is performed in EntraPass, so this can be restored to return to its previous action.

After selecting the box and clicking OK, a warning displays indicating that the action is irreversible before EntraPass performs a backup of your data.

After the process has completed, the option is grayed out on the Card tab.

  • Badge credential outside account: Indicates whether to use the badging system for cards that do not belong to any account as well as the initial state of the added card number.
  • Mandatory card number when verified: The system waits for a card number before changing the badge status from Printed to Verified.
  • Clear upon validation: Clear the account name upon validation from the badge status section in the Badge Request window.
    Note: These fields are available only when the Badging Credential option is activated.

Enable access level exceptions: If selected, access level exceptions can be activated by user for each door. On activation, the user receives a warning message indicating that the controller reload process might slow down. To find out how to link a specific schedule to a door, see Access Exception.
