Sites
All operating actions are performed within a site, which is the core element for organizing and managing data for companies and sites.
A site must exist within a company.
Certain management data belongs to a given site, and others are common to a group of sites managed in the same folder:
- The ledger includes information common to all sites such as products, business partners, the chart of accounts, common tables, units, and so on.
- The files that contain data linked to a site such as the transactions, but also certain data linked to the product.
Even if each management act is clearly referenced to a single site, a certain number of processes require the cooperation between several sites.
Examples of this are:
- Multi-site planning (MPS, MRP or DRP)
- Exchanging goods between 2 storage sites
- Consumption of a product at another storage site
- Including the same order for purchase requests generated by different sites
- Splitting a delivery across several sites depending on the requesters
- Generating account postings over several sites from a single supplier invoice
- Allocating a customer order to several sites, warehouses, and so on
A user is not connected to a site or company.
The user's authorizations define which data they can access for a site or sites.
Default authorization values allow users the appropriate sites for their profiles. The default sites are defined by module on the Sites tab in the Function profile record.
