Abstract

A computer-implemented method for generating and configuring content of an elevator destination dispatch kiosk. The kiosk includes a display. The method includes creating a kiosk database having kiosk data. The kiosk data outlines a plurality of destination floors associated with the elevator destination dispatch kiosk. The method comprises the step of using a computing structure remote from the elevator destination dispatch kiosk to automatically: (a) access the kiosk data in the kiosk database, and (b) generate a floor button layout. The method includes the step of communicating the floor button layout from the computing structure to the elevator destination dispatch kiosk to cause the floor button layout to be published on the display. An interface of the computing structure allows the floor button layout to be previewed before the floor button layout is communicated from the computing structure to the elevator destination dispatch kiosk.
