Apply Temp Permit to User Vehicles

This article explains how to configure and issue a single temporary parking permit that applies to multiple vehicles on a user's profile. This feature streamlines the permitting process for administrators managing users who need temporary access for more than one registered vehicle. This guide is intended for OPS-COM administrators.

Setup and Configuration

Before issuing a temporary permit for multiple vehicles, you must configure the specific lot to allow this functionality.

1. Navigate to Lot Administration and select the lot you wish to configure.

2. Click the Temporary Parking tab.

3. Enable the Allow temp permits to be used over 30 days checkbox.

4. Enable the Allow all vehicles on profile to receive the permit checkbox.

5. Save your lot configuration changes.

Using this Feature

Once the lot is configured, administrators can issue the multi-vehicle temporary permit directly from the user's profile.

1. Navigate to the desired user's profile and click the Parking tab.
   
2. Click the Temporary Parking Permit button.
   
3. Select the configured lot within the Temporary Parking Permit Registration window.
4. Set the start date and end date.
5. Click the Apply to all Vehicles button. 
   
6. Click the Confirm This Permit button to proceed to the confirmation window.
7. Verify that all intended vehicles are listed, then click the Purchase this Permit button.
   
8. Select the method of payment on the payment screen then click the Submit Payment Information button.
   
9. Select Confirm Payment Information to proceed.
10. Click the Process Manually button to finalize the transaction.
    

Upon completion, you will be taken to the Transaction Details screen, where you can view a final record of the purchase.

Best Practices and Considerations

Date Range Requirement: The selected date range between the start date and end date must be for a period longer than 30 days. If the duration is 30 days or less, the Apply to all Vehicles button will not activate.

• Vehicle Verification: Always review the vehicle list on the confirmation screen before clicking Purchase this Permit to ensure the user has all necessary vehicles properly registered to their profile.

• Lot Configuration: Remember that the multi-vehicle option is lot-specific. If you expect administrators to use this feature across different areas, ensure all relevant lots are updated under their respective Temporary Parking tabs.
