Setting Up Checkpoints

Checkpoints are unique to the Security app. A Checkpoint is a Location that can be included in a Security Round. This may mean turning existing Locations into Security Checkpoints, or it may mean adding new Locations for the purpose of including it in a Round.

 

  1. Click on the Settings tab, then select Location.
  1. Click on Location Manager.

Turning an Existing Location into a Checkpoint

If the exact location you wish to use as a Security Checkpoint is already in TheWorxHub, you simply need to tell the system it will also serve as a Checkpoint.

  1. Use the Location tree to navigate to the Location you need, then hover your mouse over the Location name.
  2. Click on the magnifying glass icon to open the Location Info page.
  1. Click on the Security panel to open it.
  2. Check the box next to Make Security Checkpoint.
  3. Click the Upload Photo link to include a photo of the checkpoint in the Security Round.
  4. In the Checkpoint Notes field, enter any specific instructions you want included for the Security Round.
  5. If you would like the person completing the Security Round to be required to scan the location barcode in order to complete this checkpoint, check the box next to Barcode Scan Is Required To Check-In. See the Barcoding section below for more information. *Note: In order for the user to check in with a barcode, they must use the pic2shop or Camera scanning option on the mobile version of their device.
    • If you do not want to require a barcode scan to check in, the user will be able to check in with a button on their mobile device.
  6. Click Save.
