Documentation

Guidance for the three people who touch this.

A staff member at the checkpoint, an installer on site, and an administrator in the portal. Detailed runbooks and the full documentation package are issued with a pilot; this page is the public shape of them.

01 · Operator guidance

What staff need to know, in full.

This is genuinely the whole training. If it took longer than this, it would not survive a Friday night.

pass

21+ Verified → proceed

The credential proves the holder is 21 or older. Continue with the transaction or entry as normal.

fail

Under 21 → refuse per your policy

The credential answers that the holder is not 21 or older. Follow your venue’s refusal procedure; the verifier does not tell you what that is.

unable_to_verify

Unable to verify → manual fallback

The check could not complete trustworthily. Use your existing manual age check. This is not a soft pass and must never be treated as one.

Three things staff should also know

The patron keeps their phone throughout — never take it. The result clears itself, so there is nothing to close and no history to scroll. And a patron without a mobile ID is not a problem: your normal procedure covers them, exactly as it does today.

02 · Deployment guidance

What an installer works through on site.

Before the visit

Device records created in the portal and bound to the correct location. Single-use activation codes issued. The signed release staged through your established device-management workflow.

On site

Confirm the checkpoint posture and a charging position. Install, activate with the single-use code, and confirm configuration has been retrieved.

Before leaving

Confirm the device appears in Fleet Health with a first heartbeat, then verify a real credential at the real counter. A device that is merely online is not a finished install.

Handover

Walk the shift lead through the three outcomes and the fallback, and confirm the written fallback procedure is where staff can find it.

Full deployment model

Next step

Full runbooks come with a pilot.

Site profiles, installer procedures, and staff quick-reference material are issued as part of deployment support.
