Introduction
This solution is not clickable for printers on polish market, as they have hardcoded template that can't be changed.
In case you are using a QR code scanner to access the club and you need to allow a person who is a guest only to enter the club, creating a QR code for anonymous entrance is what you need.
This feature allows to sell the product of a special service type to anonymous users with a QR code printed on the receipt and allows them to enter the club with a QR scan.
The logic of this solution is as follows:
- You have a product marked as QR entry.
- You sell this product on POSweb to a user without an account - this is important!
- A receipt is printed, but since it was an entry sale, it is printed together with the QR code.
- The Access Server logic allows the user to enter after scanning this QR at the gate. Technically, this feature adds an entry into AnonymousEntranceCustomReasonUsage table for every single QR product sold on receipt.
- Technically, this QR code is a random guest which is assigned as CardNumber in the AnonymousEntranceCustomReasonUsage table.
- Mind that club visits are registered in a way that they are not counted in a view Members In Club available in Mobile and Client Portal or Access Control reports.
Mind that this feature works only for anonymous sale - it means that you cannot use it in case of members with contracts. Instead, it is used for granting access to the club to guests only!
- This article describes what should be configured first for QR code to be used for anonymous entrance to the club. It also describes how to use the code on the POSweb.
- This article will be useful for PG Champion, Administrator, Club Manager and Club Owner.
