Overview

If your Layton ServiceDesk™ implementation is to support multiple sites, or physical locations, then you will need to define them in Administration > Company Structure > Manage Site. Sites are defined by a single identifier that must be unique, the Site Name. Like Departments and Companies, Sites can also be created automatically as part of the LDAP (Active Directory) End User Import Feature. If an End User is imported into Layton ServiceDesk and their Site has not already been created, then it will automatically create this Site at the time of import.



If you have enabled the Company Level option, then a Company may be associated with the Site. The Site form may be modified in Administration > Form Design > Site.

The Site-specific email configuration allows for custom email server connection information specific to each Site. All settings are inherited from the global Email Server Settings until they are customized, then the Site-specific configuration will take precedence. This includes the Auto Import settings, which default to Inherited, but they may also be turned On or Off.

Delete

Use the delete button to remove a Site that is no longer in use.
