> 
> The **Visitors** table lets you filter by **Access Status**, such as **valid** for current visitors, or **expired** for those whose access has ended or has been cancelled. You can also filter by **building** to view specific locations or by **tenant** name. This feature helps you keep track of all visitor activity, including check-in/check-out times, access duration, and expired permissions. This log provides a complete history of each visitor’s interactions with the property, ensuring full visibility for security and management purposes.
