IPAC Server Administrator's Manual Page 158 of 334 Adding Cards Administrators with appropriate permissions can add cards to the system. There are two ways to add cards to your account. A set of cards can be added all at once by defining the first and last Internal Numbers for the set. For example, you can add 100 cards all at the same time by specifying the first card's Internal Number (e.g., 3000) and the last card's Internal Number (e.g., 3099). Administrators with appropriate permissions can add cards in this way. Alternatively, you can add individual cards on an as-needed basis through a process referred to as "swipe-to-enroll." Procedures for both methods are described below. To add one or more cards to the account: 1. Scroll over the Users link. The sub-navigation menu displays. 2. From the sub-navigation menu, click Cards from the dropdown list. The Cards list displays. 3. Click Add New Cards. The Add Cards page displays. Figure 81. Add New Cards 4. Click the appropriate Format on the drop-down list. 5. Enter the First External Number. The external number is the number printed on the card's surface. For example, card #200 will have "200" or "00200" printed on its corner. The external number is simply a reference to the card itself. NOTE: The internal number and external number are often the same, in which  case you only need to enter the external number. However, in some cases they are offset. For example, you can have a series of 100 cards in which the external numbers are 3001-3100 and the internal numbers are 5001-5100. When this happens you must enter both the first internal number as well as the corresponding external number. 6. To add multiple cards at once, enter a Last External Number. A card is added for each number in the range defined by the first and last external numbers inclusively. If you enter a First External Number without also entering a Last External Number, then only a single card with the specified number is added. 158

Adding Cards
Administrators with appropriate permissions can add cards to the system.
There are two ways to add cards to your account. A set of cards can be added all at once by
defining the first and last Internal Numbers for the set. For example, you can add 100 cards
all at the same time by specifying the first card’s Internal Number (e.g., 3000) and the last
card’s Internal Number (e.g., 3099). Administrators with appropriate permissions can add
cards in this way. Alternatively, you can add individual cards on an as-needed basis through
a process referred to as “swipe-to-enroll.”
Procedures for both methods are described below.
To add one or more cards to the account:
1.
Scroll over the Users link. The sub-navigation menu displays.
2.
From the sub-navigation menu, click Cards from the dropdown list. The Cards
list displays.
3.
Click Add New Cards. The Add Cards page displays.
Figure 81.
Add New Cards
4.
Click the appropriate Format on the drop-down list.
5.
Enter the First External Number. The external number is the number printed on
the card’s surface. For example, card #200 will have “200” or “00200” printed
on its corner. The external number is simply a reference to the card itself.
NOTE:
The internal number and external number are often the same, in which
case you only need to enter the external number. However, in some
cases they are offset. For example, you can have a series of 100 cards
in which the external numbers are 3001-3100 and the internal
numbers are 5001-5100. When this happens you must enter both the
first internal number as well as the corresponding external number.
6.
To add multiple cards at once, enter a Last External Number. A card is added for
each number in the range defined by the first and last external numbers
inclusively. If you enter a First External Number without also entering a Last
External Number, then only a single card with the specified number is added.
