Creating a Site

You can assign a site to an entity. Children entities inherit the parent entity's site.

To create a site

1. Open or go to the Site Definition workspace tab.

2. Do one of the following:

   • Press the Ctrl+N keys.

   • Right-click in the tab and on the context menu click New.

   • On the ribbon, go to the Home tab and on the New menu click New Site.

   A new site is added.

3. In the new site's Properties window, complete the following settings:

   Entity Name

   Click the Browse button. The Entity Window dialog box appears. Select the entity for which you want to create the site from the entity tree.

   Site Name

   An additional name for the site. This is an optional field.

   Region

   The time zone to which this entity belongs. All transactions against entities within the site will use the site's region to convert between local times and UTC.

   Entity Description

   A brief description of the selected entity.

4. Save the changes.
