Assigning Existing Geofences

Typically you assign geofences when they are created. But, did you know you can assign at any time? This guide demonstrates how to assign existing Geofences to crews and equipment.

1. Within Geofences, select Assign from the Geofence Tools.

2. Select + Item Assignment or + Group Assignment to toggle the sections into view.

Choose the dropdown within Assign to Group to select different crew groups.  As you select a crew, the list of Geofences will update to show which ones are assigned to that group by the checked boxes.

How to Assign: Pick the checkbox to assign Geofences to the crew group selected. All equipment in this crew will now be assigned to the Group.

Choose the dropdown within Group to also select crew groups. The assigned Geofences will display in the list below. If a Geofence is not assigned to the group in focus in the Group dropdown, it will not be shown.

If you have many geofences in your InfoHub account, use the search box to quickly find a Geofence by it’s name. Type in the name of the geofence and hit Enter or click the Search  button.

Note: When you assign groups to Geofences, you must also be sure that the geofence has a been properly created and configured for Item Assignment. You can see if a geofence has been assigned to items in group by editing the geofence and making sure that Assign to Items in Groups has been checked and options set.

Toggle + Item Assignment into view by selecting the label within the Geofence Tools panel.

Choose the dropdown within Group to filter items based on their crew group.

Select the Gear Icon  to see assigned Geofences for that piece of equipment.

Note: If the popup for assigned geofences is empty (No Records Found) this means that no Geofence has been assigned to this equipment. If you feel this is an error, check your Geofences to by selecting the pencil icon  within the View mode to make sure that each one has been completed with Assign to Items in Group.

You can edit an existing geofence assignment by selecting the pencil icon or delete the assignment by choosing the trash can To assign a new geofence for the selected equipment:

1. Choose Assign Geofence .

2. In the next window, select from the list of available Geofences and specify the Action, Time In/Out, Speed, Days, Start and End Time for monitoring this Geofence.

3. Save the options to close the window and to the main Geofence screen.
