Sites

A site is typically a facility in an organization where work is managed. These activities include managing assets and physical locations by using preventive maintenance schedules and work orders, managing inventory in storerooms, processing stock replenishment, and other supply chain-related activities.

A site is not required to be a physical location. For example, you can use sites in any of the following ways:

  • Two sites can correspond to two different facilities in two different countries.
  • Two sites can correspond to two subdivisions that you want to keep separate for business reasons, even if the sites are located within the same facility.
  • Several facilities can correspond to a single site because they all use the same data that the application software treats as site-level data. For example, the facilities all use the same work order data.
