VisitorRego allows you to send notifications to more than one contact for a single staff member. This is useful in situations where, for example, a PA or EA should also be notified when someone signs in to meet with their manager.
The recommended method for adding additional contacts is via the VR Portal. However, if your staff list is maintained through an Active Directory integration, a different approach is required to ensure additional contacts are preserved.
4. Click on the staff member's name you would like to update.
To add additional email recipients:
Enter the secondary email address into the
EmailCC field.
If you are adding more than one, separate each address with a semicolon.
For example:
jane@abc.com;
paul@abc.com.
To add additional mobile recipients:Enter the secondary mobile number directly after the primary mobile number in the Mobile field, separated by a semicolon.
For example: 0212345678;0273456789
.
5. Once done, click Update to save your changes.

All email addresses and mobile numbers listed for the staff member will receive notifications when a visitor signs in to meet them.
If your staff list is maintained via an automatic
Active Directory load, any manual updates made in the VR Portal may be overwritten during the next sync. To prevent this, the affected staff member must be marked as “Maintain by VR” in Admin Mode on the kiosk.
1.
From VisitorRego’s Admin mode, select,
File >
Maintain Staff.
2. Find and select the staff member you want to update.
To add additional email recipients:
Enter the secondary email address into the
Email field.
If you are adding more than one, separate each address with a semicolon.
For example:
jane@abc.com;
paul@abc.com.
To add additional mobile recipients:Enter the secondary mobile number directly after the primary mobile number in the Mobile field, separated by a semicolon.
For example: 0212345678;0273456789
.
3. Scroll to the right and tick the checkbox Maintain by VR for this staff member to prevent automatic overwriting by AD staff loads.
4. Close the Maintain Staff window to save your changes.
All email addresses and mobile numbers listed for the staff member will
receive notifications when a visitor signs in to meet them.
