Work with Sites

A Site refers to the civic address where the media is located. Faces are the installation points at the site. A Site is one of two mandatory hierarchy levels for assets, the other one being a Face (see Asset Hierarchies).

An inventory's position in the asset hierarchy is set at the Site Category level. Site Categories define the way a certain type of Media will behave in the same way that categories change the details of agencies or designs.

To locate Sites:

  1. Access Operations in the top-left menu, click the Assets tab, and then the Sites tile.

    2. Sites

    This presents the filter search window.

  2. Click Search.

    3. The screen will refresh to show the list of Sites available.

A Site is one of two mandatory hierarchy levels for assets, the other one being a Face (see Asset Hierarchies).

Note: The Site inherits some of the information from the Faces, such as Saleability. For more information, see Asset Inheritance.
