What vendor Access Scheduling does
Vendor Access Scheduling is one of the modules societies ask for most. In short, it lets the office fix which hours a housekeeping or maintenance vendor is allowed to enter the society — removing a task that used to depend on a register, a phone call, or someone remembering.
Key benefits
- Vendors can't enter outside approved hours.
- Reduces after-hours access to common areas.
- Committee sets the schedule once per contract.
- Attempts outside the window are logged.
How it works
1
Turn it on
The admin enables vendor Access Scheduling for your society from the Secure Nest dashboard — no separate installation needed.
2
Set your rules
Configure it to match how your society actually works: who can approve, what gets logged, and who's notified.
3
It runs itself
From here, vendor Access Scheduling works in the background — residents, guards, and the committee all see the same up-to-date record.
Why societies choose this
Vendor Access Scheduling is designed to fit into how Indian housing societies actually run day to day — including patchy connectivity at the gate and guards who may be more comfortable on a simple phone screen than a full admin console.
Frequently asked questions
In most cases, yes. Vendor Access Scheduling runs on the Secure Nest app and dashboard, and where hardware is involved (like cameras or access devices), it's designed to work alongside common existing setups rather than requiring a full replacement.
Yes — it's built for residents and staff who may not be comfortable with complex apps. Most residents are up and running within their first use, and guards typically need only a short walkthrough.
Yes. Records created through this module are stored securely and access is limited by role, so residents, guards, and committee members only see what's relevant to them.
