To show badge application fields on badges and reports, you must first associate them to cardholder custom fields. You can then reference these custom fields in your badge templates and reports.
Before you begin
- Define the employee privileges for your airport.
- Decide which badge application fields you want to show on badges and reports, and create
the cardholder custom fields that they can be mapped to. For more
information, see Creating custom fields.Tip: For clarity, we recommend that you group all custom fields created for the Airport Badging Solution under the same group name.
