What is different about the business permit?

Business permits have two options. If your employee is utilizing the business spaces, or lots around campus then a Business permit will be all you need. If you prefer to use the garages with your business permit, then the Business+ option is what you will need to purchase. Throughout the year if you notice you are not using the garages as frequently as you thought, you can return the Business+ permit and order a Business permit. Conversely, if you find you need garage access, you can return the Business permit, and order the Business+ permit, at any time. Since the permits are virtual, you will have immediate access to them through the DPR account which allows you to assign them as needed and will provide the assigned custodian immediate Business/Business+ accessibility. As always, a Business/Business+ permit must be used in conjunction with active A&M permit. Your DPR account will continue to show you your employees who have an active permit.

How do I get the business permit to the employee to use?

No longer must you physically hand out a permit. Simply login to the DPR account and click on the Assign BUS to Employee link under the Business Permit section to assign/reassign them as needed throughout the day or semester. Since the permits are virtual, once you have added the Business/Business+ to an employee with an active permit, the assigned employee will have immediate Business/Business+ accessibility. Assigning and tracking your business permits will be easier than ever.
