We're excited to announce a significant enhancement to TimeTec Patrol's Flexi Scan feature. This update is designed to streamline your security operations further and provide greater flexibility in managing guard patrols.

With the new Flexi Scan feature, you can now:

• Proactively manage patrols: Empower security guards to initiate patrols before official schedule assignments, ensuring uninterrupted coverage.
• Streamline administrative tasks: Simplify the process of assigning guards to schedules by integrating Flexi Scan data seamlessly into the system.
• Gain greater visibility: Monitor and review patrol records, including Next Action records, to gain valuable insights into your security operations.

We believe these enhancements will significantly improve the efficiency and effectiveness of your security operations. Refer to the steps below to start to use the Flexi Scan feature.

Admins can configure the Flexi Scan feature under Patrol Settings and set a maximum patrol duration of up to six hours.

Admins can review patrol records from Audit Data. This page displays all patrol time records, including Next Action records.

Navigate to the Flexi Scan page to review summaries of each flexible scan route.

Click the summary to review detailed patrol time records for the flexible scan route. Admins can select a schedule from the “Convert Flexi Scan data into the guard schedule” option to process the data according to the selected patrol schedule. All results will be published under the Patrol Record page.

Finally, admins can navigate to Patrol Records to review the processed data.
