Assign Access Management to account team members as part of the account team member creation process. These are users who work for the operator. These team members can open particular doors at your site or sites using their access devices.
Important: This topic describes the changes associated with the Create account team members functionality when Access Management is in use. An additional page is added to the Add a team member wizard, from which you can:
Assign the team member an access device (card), by capturing their card ID.
Associate the team member with one or more groups; indicating which doors they should be able to open.
Activate access control for the team member; granting them access rights when they tap their devices, and, optionally, granting them those access rights even when the site is offline.
Note: When you edit your team member, you can manage their Access Management set up; activating and deactivating them on Access Management, and capturing their card details. Their groups are updated in the separate Manage groups dialog box.
Create an operator team member with Access Management
From Account > Team members:
Follow the standard process to create an account team member.
Because you have Access Management, an additional Access Management page is present in the wizard:
In the Access Management page, specify:
The Access Management status for the team member, and details of their access card. For more information, see Access Management.
The details of the Access Management groups that the user should be a member of. For more information, see Access Management groups.
Click Add team member.
The new account team member is created with Access Mangement details as defined.
Note: If the new team member is created with Access Management activated, and they are assigned a Card ID, they will be able to open the doors associated with their active groups using their access card.

Further information
Deleting a team member removes all of their details, including their Access Management details.
When I delete a team member, they can no longer open doors with their access card, and their card details are removed from the system.
Tip: This means the card can be reassigned to another user, access user, or team member.
