Creating access rules

To control access anywhere on your site, you can apply access rules to areas, doors, and elevators in the Access control task of Genetec™ Web App.

1. From the vertical navigation bar, click Access control.
   
2. Click the Access rules tab.
   
   The Access rules page opens.
3. Click Add access rules.
   The Add access rules pane opens.
4. Enter a name for the access rule.
   Best Practice: Use a descriptive name to easily determine what each rule does. For example, Lab Technicians Only or All Employees Regular Hours.
5. From the Schedule list, select a schedule.
6. Select whether to grant access or deny access when the rule is active.
   Best Practice: Schedules typically grant access. Access is denied when schedules are inactive. Use explicit deny schedules only for exceptions.
7. Select whether the rule is permanent or temporary.
   If the rule is temporary, enter an activation and expiration date.
