Automated Guard Scheduling
Weeks of Schedules
in Seconds, Not Hours
AssignPros builds out your security schedule automatically, repeating shifts, bulk copies, and qualified officers matched to every post. What used to take an afternoon takes a few clicks.
Building Schedules by Hand Eats the Week
Copying last week's spreadsheet, checking who's licensed for which post and retyping the same shifts over and over is slow, and every copy is another chance for a mistake.
- Build weeks or months of shifts at once
- Offer only officers qualified for each post
- Repeat shifts on a pattern you set
- Copy assignments one at a time or in bulk
How AssignPros Automates Scheduling
Extended Schedules at Once
Build a week, two weeks or a month of shifts in one step.
Automated Repeats
Repeat assignments by day of week or day of month, and copy them to other days or weeks.
Qualified Matching
Each shift lists the officers who hold the licenses, skills, and equipment it needs, most qualified first. You can always override.
Bulk Copy
Copy shift assignments one at a time or in bulk.
Shift or Calendar View
Work one shift at a time in full detail, or assign officers right from the schedule calendar.
Notifications Sent for You
Schedules and changes go out to officers by text, email and app automatically.
How It Works
- Set up the post once. Client, location, hours, and the licenses and equipment it needs.
- Build out the schedule. Pick the date range and pattern; AssignPros creates the shifts.
- Fill with qualified officers. Only officers who meet the post's requirements are offered.
- Send it. Officers get their shifts by text, email, and app.
Automated Guard Scheduling: Common Questions
How fast can AssignPros build a security schedule?
A week, two weeks or a month of shifts can be built at once, repeating by day of week or day of month. AssignPros can cut the time spent on scheduling by up to 80%.
Does automated scheduling pick the officers too?
AssignPros lists the officers who hold the licenses, skills and equipment each shift needs, most qualified first, and you make or override the choice.
Can I still edit individual shifts?
Yes. Any shift can be changed, split or reassigned after the schedule is built.
