When do we use this?
The Waiting List option allows administrators to see who is waiting for a permit in a specific lot. Once permits become available, administrators can sell the available permit to a user waiting for a permit. Keep in mind users can only be on one waiting list at a time.
Managing The Waiting List
In Parking Management, hover over the Permit Management icon and click Waiting Lists then Waiting List.
The Permit Waiting List screen is displayed. Administrators can view/edit details about a user waiting to purchase a permit in a specific lot.
This screen allows the admin to quickly see:
- The user's Rank on the waiting list
- The date they were added to the waiting list
- The user's name
- Their user type
- Their city
- Phone Number
- Comments
- The lot they are waiting for a permit in
If the record is highlighted in blue, the user does not currently have a permit assigned to them.
If the record is highlighted in yellow, the user does currently have a permit assigned but has not yet purchased it.
The User Profile icon, allows administrators to view/edit the user's profile. This is also the link that administrators would use if they wanted to sell a permit to the user that is on the waiting list (Click the User Profile icon and click the Parking Tab).
The Add link allows administrators to add comments to the waitlist record. If a comment already exist, an edit link will appear allowing administrators to update the comments on file.
The 'Toggle Selections' button allows administrators to select all records. Enable the check box to the left of the record to make individual record selections.
The 'Remove Selected From Waiting List' button allows administrators to remove records from the wait list. Organizations should develop a business rule for when to remove a user from the waiting list, after a user has been emailed or after a permit has been purchased.
The 'Email All Listed Users' button allows administrators to send a single email message to all users listed in the table.
The 'Email Selected Users' button allows administrators to email only those users that they have selected.
The 'Export to Excel' button exports the table as an Excel spreadsheet.
