retrieving a set of user attributes associated with the user identifier in response to the receiving the access request;
identifying the user attribute from the definition of the access status among the set of user attributes; and
presenting an indication of the access status at a client device in response to the identifying the user attribute from the definition of the access status among the set of user attributes.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the instructions cause the system to perform operations further comprising:
assigning a timestamp to the access request in response to the receiving the access request at the access control system;
receiving a report request from the client device; and
causing display of a report that comprises the user identifier, the access status, and the timestamp, at the client device.
3. The system of claim 1 further comprising a data input component, the data input component including a card reader, and wherein the receiving the access request that includes the user identifier includes:
receiving an input into the card reader via an identification card, the input including the user identifier.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the instructions cause the system to perform operations further comprising:
recording the access status at a local memory location associated with the user identifier at the system, in response to the identifying the user attribute from the definition of the access status among the set of user attributes.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the presenting the indication of the access status at the client device in response to the identifying the user attribute from the definition of the access status among the set of user attributes further comprises:
communicating an access alert based on the access status at the system.
6. The system of claim 5 , wherein the access alert includes at least one of:
an auditory alert,
a visual alert, and
a haptic alert.
7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the presenting the indication of the access status at the client device includes:
communicating the access status to the client device via Bluetooth.
8. A method comprising:
causing display of a graphical user interface that comprises a presentation of a plurality of user attributes;
receiving a definition of an access status, the definition of the access status comprising a selection of at least a user attribute from among the presentation of the plurality of user attributes;
assigning the user attribute to the access status in response to the receiving the selection of the user attribute;
receiving, at the access control system, an access request that includes a user identifier;
retrieving a set of user attributes associated with the user identifier in response to the receiving the access request;
identifying the user attribute from the definition of the access status among the set of user attributes; and
presenting an indication of the access status at a client device in response to the identifying the user attribute from the definition of the access status among the set of user attributes.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the method further comprises:
assigning a timestamp to the access request in response to the receiving the access request at the access control system;
receiving a report request from the client device; and
causing display of a report that comprises the user identifier, the access status, and the timestamp, at the client device.
10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the receiving the access request that includes the user identifier includes:
receiving an input into a card reader via an identification card, the input including the user identifier.
11. The method of claim 8 , wherein the method further comprises:
recording the access status at a local memory location associated with the user identifier at the system, in response to the identifying the user attribute from the definition of the access status among the set of user attributes.
12. The method of claim 8 , wherein the presenting the indication of the access status at the client device in response to the identifying the user attribute from the definition of the access status among the set of user attributes further comprises:
communicating an access alert based on the access status at the system.
13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the access alert includes at least one of:
an auditory alert,
a visual alert, and
a haptic alert.
14. The method of claim 8 , wherein the presenting the indication of the access status at the client device includes:
communicating the access status to the client device via Bluetooth.
15. A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a machine, cause the machine to perform operations comprising:
causing display of a graphical user interface that comprises a presentation of a plurality of user attributes;
receiving a definition of an access status, the definition of the access status comprising a selection of at least a user attribute from among the presentation of the plurality of user attributes;
assigning the user attribute to the access status in response to the receiving the selection of the user attribute;
receiving, at the access control system, an access request that includes a user identifier;
retrieving a set of user attributes associated with the user identifier in response to the receiving the access request;
identifying the user attribute from the definition of the access status among the set of user attributes; and
presenting an indication of the access status at a client device in response to the identifying the user attribute from the definition of the access status among the set of user attributes.
16. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the instructions cause the machine to perform operations further comprising:
assigning a timestamp to the access request in response to the receiving the access request at the access control system;
receiving a report request from the client device; and
causing display of a report that comprises the user identifier, the access status, and the timestamp, at the client device.
17. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 15 , further comprising a data input component, the data input component including a card reader, and wherein the receiving the access request that includes the user identifier includes:
receiving an input into the card reader via an identification card, the input including the user identifier.
18. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the instructions cause the machine to perform operations further comprising:
recording the access status at a local memory location associated with the user identifier at the system, in response to the identifying the user attribute from the definition of the access status among the set of user attributes.
