Step 5: How to use LobbyGuard's Directory feature
The Directory feature in LobbyGuard FrontDesk allows your visitors to choose from a predetermined list of employees in the facility who they're going to be seeing throughout the duration of their visit. Upon choosing someone from the Directory, LobbyGuard has the ability to notify the selected person via email or SMS text Message that the person is there for them. Each Workflow that is created has the option to display this listing so it can be available only on the viable Visitor Types. Click here to learn how to use the FrontDesk Directory feature
Step 6: Advanced Features of the FrontDesk ‘Rules’
