What is Revolving Door

Tracking when users enter and leave certain areas of the campus community is important to many people. Take, for example, a teacher who needs to know when a new student joins his or her class and needs to receive course material; the human resources personnel who need to know when someone has officially left or joined a department/college; the security personnel who needs to adjust card access permissions for teaching labs based on course registration; and even a system administrator who needs to know when someone has left a group so that their access can be restricted accordingly.

Revolving Door allows all of these people to get the information they need quickly and effectively. Powered by LDAPSurfer, the WolfTech tool for automatically sorting and categorizing all university employees and students, Revolving Door sends a daily e-mail showing any and all changes in membership amongst groups you choose to monitor. In addition to the daily e-mail you'll receive from Revolving Door, you will also be able to access seven days worth of logs for the groups you are monitoring, allowing you to view a brief history of how the makeup of these groups have changed.
