Site

Site defines regions or geographic areas where an organization has offices and/or does business.

The geographical area a site represents can be as specific or as general as an organization requires, though they are usually configured to represent a broad geographic area, such as a city. Thus, a site allows an associated job posting to automatically reflect local conditions, such as calendars, rates, suppliers, and tax structures, among others.

Site represents the geographic areas where an organization operates. It can be defined as broadly or as specifically as the organization requires.

Sites must be selected in certain transactions, such as job postings, in order to ensure that the procured workers are assigned to the correct office or work site.

On a Job Posting, Site can indicate where workers are to perform their duties.

Navigating the Site Admin Object

Select the Site admin object from the Company Structure section of the admin menu to view the list of sites associated to WorkingNet’s tenant.

Create a Site

WorkingNet has formed a new product unit, called NetAlysis, to develop network diagnostic software for its networking equipment.

As the SAP Fieldglass administrator for WorkingNet, you will need to create a company profile in the application to accommodate NetAlysis.

You’ve already created a business unit and cost centers for NetAlysis, so now you’ll create a site for the new team, which will be based at a new office in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
