PatrolSync getting started
Add a site

Add your first site and get PatrolSync operational.

Sites are the foundation of PatrolSync. Every guard, checkpoint, and patrol report is attached to a site — so getting this right first makes everything else simpler. Adding a site takes under two minutes in the portal.

Site setup • Clear structure • Ready for rollout

Have these ready before you start — setup is quicker when the details are at hand.
The site name — use something staff and managers will immediately recognise

You are signed in to the PatrolSync portal at portal.patrolsync.app
Know whether any client contacts will need visibility of this site later
Setup steps

Add a site in the portal in a few steps.

Sign in to the portal, go to Sites, and follow these steps. The first site takes the longest — after that, adding more becomes quick and straightforward.

1

Go to Sites in the portal

Sign in at portal.patrolsync.app and click Sites in the top navigation bar. You will see your list of existing sites, or an empty state if this is your first one. Click the Add site button to open the new site form.

2

Enter the site name and address

Fill in the site name — use a name that is clear and recognisable to your team. Then enter the full site address, including the postcode. Accurate address details keep your site records clean and make it easier to reference sites in reports.

3

Set client visibility

PatrolSync lets you control which clients can see which sites. If a client contact should have access to patrol activity for this site, you can configure that here or come back to it later. Keep it simple to start — you can always adjust visibility after the site is set up.

4

Save and add checkpoints

Click Save and the site will appear in your Sites list. From here you can immediately go into the site and start adding checkpoints — the QR code scan points that guards will use on patrol. Adding checkpoints is the next step to making the site operational.

Best practice

Keep your first site simple and use it as the model for the rest.

The first site is where your rollout approach gets established. Once it is structured cleanly, adding future sites becomes faster and more consistent.

Use site names that your whole team will immediately recognise — avoid internal codes or abbreviations
Get the address right from the start — it appears on reports and is hard to update retroactively
Do not overthink client visibility during initial setup — you can configure it after the site is live
Once the site is created, go straight to adding checkpoints so it becomes operational quickly
If you manage multiple sites, set the first one up correctly and use it as the template for the others

Continue with guards, checkpoints, and printing.

Once the site exists, the next steps are adding guards to it, setting up checkpoints, and getting the printed QR labels in place.
