The present invention discloses a conveying system and a method for registering service requests in a conveying system, which comprises at least one transport device. A detection area bounded on a floor surface is in connection with the transport device, in which detection area the identification data contained in the personal identifiers of passengers is read. The service profiles of passengers who have arrived in the detection area and/or who have left the detection area are determined on the basis of the identification data, and a service request according to the service profiles is registered for transporting and/or admitting passengers in the detection area to the location indicated by the service request.
A method for registering service requests in a conveying system, which comprises at least one transport device, and at least one detection area bounded on a floor surface, in which detection area the identification data contained in the personal identifiers of passengers can be read, wherein the method comprises the steps of:
Conveying A conveying system, which comprises a back-end system, at least one transport device, and at least one detection area bounded on a floor surface, said detection area comprising a device configured to read and transmit, at least to the back-end system, the identification data of identifiers in the possession of passengers in the detection area, wherein the conveying system is arranged to determine the service profiles of passengers who have arrived in the detection area and/or who have left the detection area on the basis of the identification data, and to register a service request according to the service profiles for transporting and/or admitting one or more passengers to the location served by the conveying system.
