How do I hand over keys in the portal?

Here we show you how to perform manual key transfers in the portal.

We assume that you have already created keys in the portal, how this is done, you can read more here.

In order to be able to transfer keys in the portal, the user with portal access requires at least the following rights: 

  • Key management on see
  • Key transfers on manage

If the user is logged in to the portal, there are several places where it is possible to hand over keys or accept them again. For one in the work results in the submenu Daily Activity Reports and once in the submenu item Key log. In these places you have the button + hand over key.

Please select the transferred key(s) in the checkboxes on the left.
