# Pre-Assignments

This is a helper utility that allows you to tell the platoon assigner who should be assigned to a specific requirement slot. You can do this for as many slots as you want.

{% hint style="info" %}
This feature is useful for when you want to run assignments after guild members have already started platooning.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
Pre-assigning someone to a slot means they will be guaranteed to have this assignment after the assigner has run.
