Using the car icon in a booking, you can perform several actions for CAT access cards. For example, you can manually create a new card, link an existing card, or edit card details.

Automatically created CAT cards
CAT cards can be created automatically through the CAT configuration. These cards are automatically updated when details such as the license plate number, arrival and departure dates, or points change. This means that manual changes may be overwritten.
Manually create a CAT card
Open the booking.
Click the car icon.
Select Create card.
Enter the required card details.
Save the card.
Depending on the configuration, you can enter details such as the card type, start and end date, points, and license plate numbers.
After creating the card, you can print it if required. If you only use license plate cards, printing is not necessary. For MIFARE cards, a desk terminal may be required to write the information to the physical card.
Link an existing CAT card
Open the booking.
Click the car icon.
Select Link card.
Enter the card number or read the card using a desk terminal.
Retrieve the card details.
Link the card to the booking.
Depending on the card, you may see a status indicating that:
the card has not yet been found in our booking system;
the card exists but is not linked to a booking;
the card is linked to another booking;
the card is already linked to the booking you currently have open.
Edit an existing CAT card
Open the booking.
Click the car icon.
Select Edit card.
Enter the card number or read the card using a desk terminal.
Edit the required details.
Save your changes.
You can edit details such as the card type, start and end date, points, and licence plate numbers. Credits cannot be changed in the same way as other card details. In many cases, the card must first be read using a desk terminal.
Link options and surcharges to CAT
In the CAT configuration, you can link an option or surcharge to a specific CAT function.
Click Edit next to the required configuration.
Open the Options and surcharges tab and add a new option or surcharge.
Select the required option or surcharge.
Choose what it should be used for:
additional vehicle access;
adding credits;
deducting credits.
When adding or deducting credits, set the multiplier and CAT credit type if required.
Choose whether the surcharge should also be applied when adding or deducting credits from the CAT card pop-up.
Click Save.
You can select a maximum of one CAT function per option or surcharge.
