Displaying Site Details
By clicking the Site Name from the Basic Search or the Extended/Advanced Search, the Open button corresponding to a site in the search results list opens the Site Details page and the Site Menu on the left. And also switches the menu context to the selected site; in this context, all menu items (Dashboard, Details, Permits, Evaluations, etc.) provide information related to the selected site listed.
Note: Certain menu items displayed may not be applicable based on configuration.
Creating a New Site
New sites can be created by internal users or external users.
External User Site Creation
External users create a site in one of two ways:
If the external user is already associated with a site, they can create a new site by starting a new application form and selecting Create New Site.
If the external user is not associated with any sites, they can create a new site by starting a new application form and providing a new site name when prompted.
When an external user creates a site, that user automatically becomes an Administrator for the site. Administrators can edit site information, invite other users to join the site, inactivate users, and request certifier permissions for users.
| Info |
|---|
Some implementations are configured to automatically set the user's Certifier Status to ‘“Approved” then they create a site. This means that the user has been approved to submit forms that require certifier status. (Not all forms require this.) |
Internal User Site Creation
Internal users may initiate the creation of a new site from the Site Search page.
Click in the Global Search bar and select Sites under Search by Topic
The Site Search page is displayed

Creating a Nickname for a Site

To create a nickname for a site, navigate to your Profile & Settings.
Once there, click the Site tab. Under each site name, there is a Add Nickname link. Click the link and follow the prompt to add the nickname.
Once finished, click Save. This nickname will show in the users site list, wherever the site name appears.
