Before you can grant people access to an area, you must add schedules to your areas.

Before you begin

Define schedules in Security Center. For more information, see Creating schedules.

What you should know

  • Only area owners can add schedules to an area in Genetec ClearID™.
  • A schedule is an entity that defines a set of time constraints that can be applied to a multitude of situations in the system. Each time constraint is defined by a date coverage (daily, weekly, ordinal, or specific) and a time coverage (all day, fixed range, daytime, and nighttime).
  • The schedules that are available for selection vary depending on the schedules defined in the Security Center access control system that is selected when you create your area.
  • Some schedule examples include: Always, Weekdays, Weekend, 09:00-17:00, and so on.
  • When a schedule is added to an area, an access rule is automatically created in Security Center. The area-schedule access rule defines the schedule that is associated with the area. ClearID automatically adds and removes access for a cardholder or cardholder group listed in the access rule based on the schedule specified in ClearID.
