ID and IDs editor windows,

New ID and New IDs entry windows,

Add IDs sequentially window.

ID group is the group that contains the ID. This is a required field.

Please select a group in the Select ID group window.

Name is the name of the ID. This is a required field.

Description is a text description of the ID.

Any additional information can be entered in this field.

Type denotes the type to which the given ID belongs. This is a required field.

Please select a type in the Select ID type window.

Code is the ID code. This is a required field.

You can enter the code manually or read it using a special reading device. To input the code automatically, scan the ID using an ID reader. This will enter the ID code in the Code field and the ID type in the Type field.

The codes of IDs of the same type must be unique. If you try to create or edit an ID of a specific type with a non-unique code, an error message will appear.

Mask is an attribute to indicate whether or not an ID mask is applied. This is a required field.

Masks determine the comparison rules for ID codes. Comparisons are run, for example, when searching for an ID via its code.

Please choose between Yes and No.

If you select No, the system will search for the code exactly as it is written for the ID. If you select Yes, the system will check whether the entered or scanned ID code corresponds to a mask.

Using a mask allows you to represent multiple similar IDs using a single entry in the directory. You might find this useful when implementing partner system discounts. Using masks will help you to avoid having to enter the details of all IDs issued by the partner company; instead, you will only need to create a common mask.

Start date is the start date of the ID’s validity period.

End date is the end date of the ID’s validity.

Promotion category is a promotion category allocated to the ID bearer.

Please select a promotion category in the Select promotion category window.

Suspended is an attribute showing that the ID has been suspended within Tillypad XL. This is a required field.

You can choose between No and Yes. Selecting Yes will disable the ID.
