I think the status should change upon initial presentation of an authorised badge, prior to completion of the access cycle. That way we can ensure only authorised individuals are granted access.

I think the correct answer is B. The access status should only change when the person has successfully completed the access cycle. That's the whole point of an anti-pass-back system, right?

I disagree, I believe the status should change only when the person has successfully completed the access cycle.
