Key management automation (smart locks code provisioning/reset)

Purpose

1.1. Automate the provisioning, resetting, and management of smart lock access codes for cabin rental properties to eliminate manual intervention, reduce errors, enhance guest experience, and secure key handover logistics.
1.2. Automates linkage between reservation systems, housekeeping status, guest onboarding, and smart lock platforms for automated code generation, scheduling, activation, deactivation, and logging.
1.3. Automating access based on check-in/check-out reduces unauthorized access, speeds turnovers, and supports frictionless guest self-check-in/out.

Trigger Conditions

2.1. Automated reservation confirmation received (property booked/paid).
2.2. Scheduled guest arrival within a predefined timeframe (e.g., 48 hours before arrival).
2.3. Change in housekeeping status (e.g., marked "cleaned").
2.4. Early check-in/late check-out requests.
2.5. Booking cancellation or modification automates code invalidation/reset.
2.6. Emergency override requests or property manager input.
