A visit request workflow is a series of activities associated with a visit request. These activities are performed by the system during the life cycle of a visit request. The activities can change the visit request state and properties, affect other entities in the system, or wait for a condition to become true.

The workflow helps automate visit request tasks, such as approving or rejecting access requests, so that people involved in the review and approval process can focus on other tasks.
The following diagram illustrates the visit request workflow that occurs in Genetec ClearID™ and Synergis™.
