Checking in a visitor (receptionist mode)

When a visitor has no smartphone or would rather not scan the QR code, you can check them in manually from the admin interface. This guide shows you how.

Audience: Administrators, Managers, Receptionists
Application: Admin (app.anghello.co)
Estimated time: 2 minutes

Before you start

• You need an Administrator, Manager, or Receptionist account on Anghello
• At least one site must be selected in the site selector

Checking in a visitor manually

1. Open the Visitors page

In the left-hand menu, click Visitors.

2. Click Add a visitor

Click the Add a visitor button at the top of the page.

3. Fill in the form

A window opens with the built-in check-in kiosk — the exact same interface visitors see on their smartphone or the tablet.

Follow the usual steps:

• Select the visitor type (if enabled)
• Enter the first name, last name, company, and host
• Complete the custom fields
• Accept the instructions (if enabled)
• Take the quiz (if enabled)

4. Confirm

Check-in is complete. The visitor appears in the list and notifications are sent to the host.

Good to know

💡 Tip: This method is handy for visitors without a smartphone, for deliveries, or whenever the kiosk isn't accessible.

💡 Tip: The "Add a visitor" button only appears when a site is selected in the site selector at the top of the menu.

💡 Tip: If you're following the getting-started guide, its final step invites you to add your first visitor this way.
