Manage sites and plants

You manage your organisation’s plants (and, with multiple sites, the sites) here. With multiple plants, each gets its own diary elements, live and archive log, and writer permissions, and you can switch between them in the diary’s top bar.

Before you start

• Permission: the plant-management right — tenant_role:manage (for sites, site:manage).
• Where to find it: the Plants tab (and, with multiple sites, the Sites tab) in the management area.

Steps

Adding a new plant. Each plant gets its own log and diary elements; you switch between them in the diary’s top bar.

1. Open the Plants tab.
2. Type the new plant name (e.g. Phosgene) and click Add plant.
3. Reorder the plants by dragging (this order shows in the diary’s top bar), or rename / archive an existing one.

Site vs. plant

A site is the larger unit (a physical location), a plant sits within it. With multiple sites you add them on the Sites tab, and the roles’ site access decides who sees which site’s data.

If it worked

The new plant appears in the diary’s top bar, with its own log and diary elements. The colleagues assigned to it (in the Roster) and access are governed through the roles.
