Control Visitor Invitation Timeframes

The Control Visitor Invitation Timeframes feature allows administrators to define a specific date range for when visits can be scheduled. This helps maintain organized visitor management and prevents visits being scheduled too far in advance or for invalid dates. Here's how it works:

• Date Range Configuration: Admins can set a custom date range (e.g., 0 to 30 days).
• User Restrictions: Users can only schedule visits within this range. For example:
  • If the range is set to 0–30 days, users can schedule visits starting from today and up to 30 days into the future.
• Flexibility for Admins: The range can be adjusted at any time to suit organizational needs.
• Error Prevention: If users attempt to schedule visits outside the allowed range, the system will block those attempts and prompt users to choose valid dates.

This feature ensures that visitor scheduling remains streamlined, avoids long-term uncertainties, and aligns with organizational policies.
