Define Project Site
Explanation
This activity is used to define a site for a project. A project can be developed or handled by
several sites. The sites are registered in the
Project/Site
window. All sites must belong to the company connected to the
project. Once a site is registered for the project and the project is approved,
it will not be possible for you to remove the site from the
Project/Site tab.
Note: To be able to release purchase orders, view
inventory parts, etc., the user must also be connected to the site (Sites
per User window).
Prerequisites
To perform this activity, the site must be connected to the project's company in
the Site window.
System Effects

site(s) can be registered.
