Elite has a user-friendly interface to design cards, reports and customize user entry and production forms. A database connection wizard simplifies database, card, report and form connections. Database connectivity options are expanded

in Elite to interface to Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) for Microsoft® Active Directory.® ID Card Maker Elite also offers Binary PDF 417 bar code functionality. For advanced users, the Software Developers Kit (SDK) allows for system customization to meet your precise needs, including the creation of customized buttons to allow for automated processing of a special function. Meanwhile, Elite’s comprehensive security features allow you to set administrator and user security levels, develop user audit trails, and determine write access to specified fields in your database. ID Card Maker Elite also gives you the flexibility to order two separate modules, Project and Process, which are included in the full version of the software. The Project module allows you to create projects independent of ID card production—a cost-effective, secure way to maintain control over card designs and database access across an organization. The Process module allows the user to perform all aspects of card production, but does not allow for the design of projects. This modular approach is very useful and cost effective for organizations with multiple badging locations.
