Provide login information

After you have created a guest or contractor account, you may want to provide that user with his login information. This information can be printed, viewed on the screen, included in an e-mail or sent to a mobile phone via an SMS message.

To include additional text with the account information sent to the guest, you must add the text to the guest account template under the Note tab prior to creating the account. See Create templatesfor additional information.

Guests who use the self registration option in the portal receive their credentials automatically. You do not need to send account information to those guests unless they lose the information.

For information on printer settings for guest badges, see Printer settings for guest badges.
