In Portal, a site is an organization with one or more users.
Sites restrict the information that each user can access in Portal. Super users can manage all sites and users in Portal, and Support users can view logs and status information for all sites, but other users can only access information in their own sites. For more information, see Create and manage users.
Portal can include two types of sites:
•Parent sites. A parent site represents an organization that is independent from other parent organizations.
•Child sites. A child site represents an organization that is related to a parent organization. For example, if a company has multiple locations, a parent site could represent the company as a whole, and a child site could represent each location.
Only parent sites can have child sites. Child sites cannot have their own child sites.
Only Super users can create parent sites. Super users can allow Admin users in a parent site to create and manage the parent site’s child sites.
