How to create an Access Control Rule Group?

Summary

In this guide, we will show you how to create an Access Control Rule Group.

Access Control Rules will determine who can access which facility and at what time based on their Membership Type or booked activity.
For example, you might offer Off-Peak Memberships and you want to make sure the Off-Peak members only gain access to the Facility via access control during Off-Peak time.

Please note: If you have several access points within a Facility, the same rule group should be applied to all of them. If you apply different Rule Groups within the same venue, this will cause problems and eligible customers won't be granted access.
