Day one for a new employee should be exciting. Instead, it often means waiting at the helpdesk for a laptop, chasing IT for credentials, and losing half the day to setup queues.

Smart locker device assignment eliminates all of that. Here’s how it works.

❌ Traditional Onboarding

  • New hire waits at helpdesk
  • IT manager manually hands over device
  • No formal loan record created
  • Process repeated for every new hire
  • IT team time wasted on manual handovers

βœ… Smart Locker Onboarding

  • Device pre-loaded in locker before day one
  • New hire authenticates and collects independently
  • Loan recorded automatically with full details
  • Scales to any number of new hires
  • IT team freed from manual handover tasks

➑️ How Smart Locker Onboarding Works

1

IT Pre-Assigns Device Before Day One

The day before the new hire starts, IT places the assigned laptop in a locker door and links it to the new employee’s profile in the Admin Control Panel. Takes under 2 minutes per employee.

2

New Hire Receives Login Credentials

The new employee receives their Employee ID and Security PIN via email before day one. No physical card required for first-day access β€” they can also use a Login QR Code generated from the portal.

3

Employee Authenticates and Collects

On day one, the new hire goes to the locker kiosk, enters their PIN or scans their QR Code. Their assigned door opens. Laptop collected. Loan recorded automatically with employee ID and timestamp.

4

RFID Card Registered Later

Once the employee receives their RFID staff card, IT registers it against their profile in the Admin Control Panel. From that point, they tap their card for instant locker access β€” no PIN needed.

πŸšͺ Offboarding is Just as Easy

When an employee leaves, IT revokes their RFID access and PIN instantly from the Admin Control Panel. Outstanding device loans are flagged automatically. The complete device history for that employee is available for compliance records.
