Assign by Access Group

An access group is the group of persons who have the same access permission (In the specified time period, they have the permission to access the specified access points). You can add the persons who have the same access permission to the same access group. For example, the employees in the same department should access the company gates during the working hours. The employees can be added to the same access group and be related to the access level which contains the access permission of the company gates. One or multiple access levels can be assigned to the access group, and the persons in the access group will get the permission to access all the access points in the access level(s).
