Athletics Module
The Athletics Module is a stand-alone interface designed specifically for registering athletic facility members, managing their vehicles, and issuing parking permits. Its primary purpose is to streamline the administration of athletic users in a dedicated portal separate from standard campus or municipal parking operations. This article is intended for OPS-COM administrators responsible for athletic parking management.
Setup and Configuration
The Athletics Module operates independently of the standard administrative portal and cannot be accessed through the typical OPS-COM navigation menus. No specialized system setup is required, but administrators must know the specific URL to log in.
To access the module, navigate to your standard administrative URL, but replace /admin with /athletics: https://[client_ID][.parkadmin.com/athletics](https://.parkadmin.com/athletics)
Using this Feature
Administrators can use this module to perform the entire lifecycle of an athletics parking profile, from initial registration to permit printing.

Best Practices and Considerations
-
Log out securely: Administrators must always click the Log Out button when finished working in the Athletics Module. Because this interface operates on a distinct URL outside the main admin portal, explicitly closing your session ensures unauthorized users cannot access member data.
-
Verify data before issuing: Always ensure the correct vehicle is actively associated with the user's profile before clicking the purchase button. Issuing an athletics permit to an incomplete profile can result in incorrect compliance enforcement or unwarranted citations in the physical lots.
