3 Working with the Guest Management Software

New Account(s)

Starts the Guest Account Creation Wizard, which guides you through the process of creating one or more new guest accounts. See “New account creation” on page 22.

Edit

Starts the Edit Guest Account Wizard, which guides you through the process of modifying existing guest account settings.

Note: The account password can be edited only if Allow guest account passwords to be modified manually is enabled. See “Allow guest account passwords to be modified manually” on page 46.

Reset Subscription Plan

Resets the access times for the selected account(s) to their initial values. For example, if a guest was assigned 60 minutes initially, selecting Reset Subscription Plan would allow the guest to remain online for another 60 minutes. Any time remaining from the original amount is discarded. If a guest is logged in when the account is reset, the guest is automatically logged out. Selecting the Reset Subscription Plan button activates a warning. Select OK to confirm the reset. The Reset Subscription Plan option applies both to local Custom Validity plans and to subscription plans defined on the controller.

Suspend

Deactivates an account so that it cannot be used by a guest. However, the account is not removed from the database, enabling it to be re-activated by selecting Activate/Resume at a later time.

If a guest is logged in when the account is suspended, the guest is automatically logged out.

Only Active accounts can be suspended.

Activate/Resume

Re-activates a suspended account with the same settings the account had before it was suspended.

Delete

Deletes the account from the database. If a guest is logged in when the account is deleted, the guest is automatically logged out.

Print

Prints a voucher for an account.
