Free original template · EnglishVisitor appointments questions and decisions template
Resolve decisions for visitor appointments. Record who answers, the response source, the confirmation date and the action that follows.
When this template is useful
Use this when visitor appointments cannot proceed without a confirmed answer. A typical decision is: Who meets the visitor if the host is unavailable? Record the actual reply and source before marking the question resolved.
How to complete this record
- Keep arrival time separate from meeting time. Update the visitor, reception and host together when the room, time or meeting contact changes.
- Record evidence by file, booking or decision reference so another person can find it. Keep pending work open until its required check has been completed.
Completion checks
- Host confirms the visit time and purpose
- Reception has arrival and access instructions
