This is your chance to rename the site, and change the Customer name and any other details, if required. Press Save to complete.

Deleting a site

If you want to delete a site, check mark the site, click your wrench tool and press Delete site.

Note: We don't encourage that you delete sites if they have past history, such as they've been applied to shifts in your Schedule. The system will warn you that you need to delete the shifts associated in order to delete the site, which means you'll lose all the prior shift history. The best option is to make your site Inactive if it's no longer needed.
