By assigning deny-access rules to an iFob, you can stop a cardholder from leaving an area until they have returned the iFob to the correct slot in the Traka cabinet. When a cardholder takes the iFob out of its cabinet, the cardholder is assigned to the deny-access rule. This functionality lets you better control your inventory, protect your assets, and help your personnel remember to return assets before leaving the building.

Results
- When a Traka cardholders takes the asset, that cardholder is added to the deny-access rule.
- While this cardholder has the asset, access to the doors specified in the deny-access rule are denied.

- When the cardholder returns the asset to the correct receptor in the cabinet, the cardholder is removed from the deny-access rule, and the cardholder can open the doors.
