INITIAL Setup
There are some initial setup task you must do in order to use the walk up portal for the first time.
Stockrooms
Add/Edit Stockrooms
Add Technicians and Admins to the Groups associated with Stock Rooms
Setup Roles/Groups
Add Roles to Users/Groups
snwalkup.walkup_login
snwalkup.walkup_admin
snwalkup.walkup_manager
snwalkup.walkup_technician
I suggest setting up a test user for each role. That way you can test the experience with each persona.
Please note this detail from ServiceNow on roles:
Accessing the onsite Walk-up Experience portal requires the singularly assigned sn_walkup.walkup_login role. The user record with this role cannot contain any other roles. Since most user records contain multiple roles, the sn_walkup.walkup_login role is assigned to a user record account, not a human user. This security feature prevents the onsite portal check-in device from permitting elevated privileges to users who may attempt to access the portal with an elevated privilege role.
Setup Walk-up Location Queues
What do you mean you are closed? Setup Schedules in the Location to adjust this message display
Add the Location Queues and associated assignment group
If developing the Walk up queue, I suggest creating a 24/7 schedule and using that for the locations. That way you can test the walk-up portal outside the default 8-5 weekdays schedule.
Otherwise you receive this message when you are trying to test the walkup. Or maybe you only want to test 8-5 weekdays and this is perfect.
Personas
End User
Role: sn_walkup.walkup_login
The end user will access a portal like: https://<your_instance>.service-now.com/walkup
They can access this portal two ways:
Online - Users can check into a walk-up venue online using a laptop, tablet, or mobile phone via Walk-up Check-in available in the application navigator under Self-Service. Once a location queue is selected, users can see how many other end users are in the queue and decide whether or not to join the queue.
Walk-up Experience location - Users can check into a queue at the physical walk-up location. Guests of the walk-up venue can observe queue activities on a large monitor that displays place in line, end users currently in the queue, and end users being helped.

Technician
Role: sn_walkup.walkup_technician
Walk-up Experience IT technicians manage daily operations at the walk-up queue locations. They resolve IT-related issues, support mobile devices and laptops, and fulfill requests for software and hardware consumables.
Technicians can view active and closed interactions, assign interactions to themselves, other agents or other walk-up locations, and view and distribute stockroom consumables.
Walk-up Experience IT managers supervise the walk-up location technicians. Walk-up managers oversee walk-up location performance by monitoring the walk-up dashboard. They are responsible for customer satisfaction, confirming stockroom inventory is available, ensuring customers are served in a timely manner, and reporting performance data to upper management.
For technicians, you manage your work queue in the “full ServiceNow”.

Note about Walkup Portal and Admin accounts
Check in Error
Only users with the sn_walkup.walkup_login role can access the walkup portal portal pages. This was done for security purposes as the portal pages are exposed on a device like tablet. It was an engineering decision to restrict the access given to the walkup login users only.
There are two ways to access these portal pages:
Create an ESS user and assign 'sn_walkup.walkup_login' role; impersonate ESS user to access the portal. (NOTE: There is logic in place that will prevent assigning this role if the user already has some other role assigned), or
A new user, 'Walkup User', is included with the Walk-up plugin. Admin/Maint can impersonate this user to access the portal pages.
