[Prex] "how to" for visitation status checks

[Robert Michaels]

Hello, CREX'ers

As there is occasional confusion about coming back to JLab, I forward below
a portion of emails from Cameron and Victoria about how Users can check
their status and reduce the risk of getting turned back at the guard shack
on the way to a shift.   I also remind you of this:

It's possible to have "Day Time  Access" vs "All Hours Access"  with your badge.  This is a simple thing to have admin (your on-site sponsor or the jris team) fix during regular business hours.  If you haven't been to the lab after hours, but have a swing/owl shift coming up, check that status on JList ahead of time.  (use the jlab vpn: https://vpn.jlab.org/+CSCOE+/portal.html, sign in with mobile pass, browse https://misportal.jlab.org/jlist/, login with your CUE password, click "my info" on the left. check for "Building Access" under your ID picture).

Similarly to this problem is the activation status of your badge. There has been some confusion caused by the return down to medcon 5 including statements about needing to visit an office to re-activate your badge. In fact no visit is needed unless you need a totally new badge (for first time visitors) and you can simply use your old badge when your newly online registered visit has been processed approved (which will be preceded 2 days in advance by the email requesting verification of COVID-19 safety) and approved (which comes with no email confirmation).

To check visit approval status follow the same steps as mentioned above to verify your site-access, but instead of looking for the “daytime access/all times access“ field, look for the “active/inactive” field. If your access is “active” and valid at all hours then you will be allowed on site for shifts with no trouble.
