Assigning new access devices to an inventory item
In order to set up the inventory correctly and ensure all is running smoothly, you will have to perform the steps below. Most likely you will do this on a monthly basis, or intervals that make sense for your business.
Please follow the following 3 steps:
Update your Sharefox inventory. First just create the inventory as normal (see instructions here). This will ensure that one or more new asset exist and can be booked by users
- 3rd party system update (if necessary). Update your asset configuration in the 3rd party system (eg. Flinkey, Sharebox)
- For Flinkey: Create a new car, a new box and assign the box to the car in the Flinkey portal (see Flinkey manual for details)
- For Sharebox: Make sure a dedicated locker is registered on the Sharebox portal. If you are already using a Sharebox, this is probably done already.
For Inlet: Receive the required lock IDs from Inlet Support team
Allocate self-service details to your inventory. Go back to the Sharefox inventory and enter the self-service parameters to each inventory item:
- SSG Provider ID: Choose an option from the pre-populated list of Self Service provider accounts (eg. your Flinkey account, your Sharebox account, your Inlet account)
- SSG Serial ID 1:
- For Flinkey: populate with the car id value from the Flinkey portal. ID can be found in the car URL on the portal (eg: https://portal.witte.digital/Car/Detail/27837)
- For Sharebox: use the Reservation ID value found in the Sharebox portal for each locker.
- If you have more cars than lockers: then we recommend you to create accessories included on the booking of a car; and put the reservation ID on the accessories. This way one can never get more bookings sent to Sharebox than available lockers.
- For Inlet: populate with the Locker ID value. Get the Locker ID from the Inlet Support team
- SSG Serial ID 2 (required for Inlet only):
- For Inlet: populate with API-key value for specific lock or location. Get the API-key from the Inlet Support team
