# How can I manage multiple age limits for my visitors?

## VeriScan offers two options for flagging age: minimum age and restricted age

To manage your visitors and ensure they are at least a particular age (typically 21), simply use **Minimum Age Limit**. Any visitor scanned that is below the **Minimum Age Limit** will result in an Underage alert and cause the scan result to show **FAILED**. 

However, if you are using VeriScan to manage guests of multiple ages, you can also use **Restricted Age Limit**. Any visitor scanned that is at least as old as the **Minimum Age Limit**, but is younger than the **Restricted Age Limit** will result in the scan result of **FLAGGED**. 

You can manage these and other alerts in the VeriScan Cloud portal in [Settings \> Local Settings \> Alerts](https://veriscancloud.com/Settings) tab by selecting **More Settings** next to **Age Limits**. 

### Why is this useful?

Music *venues*, *clubs*, and *bars* sometimes have two age restrictions:

- 18 years or older to enter the building
- 21 years or older to purchase a drink

If you need to set age restrictions for multiple tiers of ages like listed above, set your **minimum age to 18** so that anyone 17 or younger will have a "Failed" status with an underage alert.

Set your **restricted age to 21** so that anyone between the ages of 18 and 21 will have a status of "Flagged" and anyone 21 or older has a status of "Passed" (assuming all other checks pass as well).

Other useful scenarios where this might be useful may include:

- Escape rooms / horror experiences where people under a certain age need a parent or guardian
- Casinos or other age restricted businesses that allow 18 years olds to visit restaurants but not gamble
- Adult entertainment where you must be 18 to enter the building but 21 to access the bar 

### For example:

If you set the Minimum Age Limit to 45, and the Restricted Age Limit to 47...

You will see this alert when someone below the minimum is scanned:

You will see this alert when someone between the minimum and restricted limits is scanned:

You will see no alert when someone above both limits is scanned.
