Sites in WorkPoint

2. Master sites

3. Root site

Sites in WorkPoint generally refers to the workspace of any entity on a business module which has sites enabled.

A site can contain multiple site pages, lists, libraries and more, and can generally be thought of as the area in WorkPoint where you store all data relevant to an entity. Which elements they contain is almost completely customizable.

An example could be a business module for Project entities. Each entity on the business module has meta data related to the project, for example a title, a project ID, and a project manager. It may also be connected to it's own specific site. This site can contain a range of site pages to display dashboards with webparts, libraries to store documents and e-mails related to the project, and lists to keep track of tasks and risks.

The very front page of any WorkPoint solution is located on what is typically referred to as the "root site" of the solution. This site typically has one or more site pages which contains dashboards with webparts displaying various overviews for data stored in the solution. This could for example be overviews of active clients or suppliers, the current user's open tasks, or a PowerBI report.
