To formulate the Badge ID automatically, click the Generate option in the Badge ID field. So, badge id is generated automatically, and it is viewable in the Badge ID field. Later, select the Print Badge option to download the employee badge data.
The badge id is printed into your system once selecting the Print Badge option. So, we can assign a badge ID for each employee in a firm.
