Geofencing is built around assigning employees to worksites. In the ASSP, managers and regular users can create, modify, and assign employees to multiple worksites.
For more about geofencing, visit the Geofencing Overview. Check In/Out must be setup on Avanti Go. For that, see Schedule and Check In/Out Setup on Avanti Go.
You can adjust or create worksites in Worksite Geofences, which can be found in Administration by default. For more information, go to Geofencing Setup Guide.
How to Add a Worksite
Once ready, here’s how to create your worksite.
Step 1: On the Worksite Geofences page, select Add Worksite in the top right corner.
Step 2: In the Add Worksite, fill out the fields.
English Worksite: Name of site.
French Worksite: Name of site for employees logging into ASSP in French or optional name.
Radius: Geofence range around the address area in metres.
Additional Information
To ensure employees can check in, set the radius to at least 100-150 metres as phone location accuracy varies depending on your worksite. At a rural worksite with no Wi-Fi deep in the woods, you may have to set the radius up to several kilometres (2000 metres). If employees are having difficulty checking in, consider increasing the radius.
Address: Put in the address of the worksite. This can be done either by:
Type out an address above the map.
Click on the map to set a pin.
Step 3: Click Save.
Step 4: If you have additional worksites, repeat Steps 1 to 3.
You can now proceed with populating a worksite at How to Assign Employees to a Worksite.

How to Assign Employees to a Worksite
With your worksites created, employees can now be assigned to multiple worksites based on their position, location, or work group.
Additional Information
Once an employee is assigned to a worksite, they must be at that worksite to check in on Avanti Go.
Step 1: Click on the three dots for more actions and select Edit assignments.
Step 2: Fill out one or more of the search types.
Employees are assigned if they match the selection. This will let you cast as small or wide a net for employees to assign to a worksite.
Work Groups: Include employees by work group.
Locations: Include employees by location.
Positions: Include employees by job title.
Additional Information
When selecting criteria, consider this logic:
Choosing multiple entries in a search type creates an OR situation. For example, select Head Office and South Branch for Location to assign employees working at the head office or south branch to the worksite.
Choosing entries across search types creates an AND situation. For example, if only hourly forklift operators should be assigned to worksite, select Hourly Regular Shift in Work Groups AND Forklift Operator in Positions.
Step 3: Click Save.
Step 4: An assigned tag will now appear beside the worksite entry.
Step 5: Repeat these steps for other worksites.
Employees will see they have been added to a worksite on Avanti Go.
