Overview
Sites are the physical properties you manage in SwiftComply Stormwater. Each site can belong to one or more programs and serves as the hub for inspections, deficiencies, BMPs, monitoring, and reports.
Before you begin
You must be logged in as an Authority User (not restricted or read-only).
Know which program(s) the site belongs to.
Adding a new site
Navigate to the program where you want to add the site (e.g., Construction, Industrial).
Click the Add or Create button.
Fill in the site details:
Name: The site name (required).
Address: Street, city, state, and ZIP code.
Notes: Free-form text notes about the site.
Status: Select a site status from the dropdown (configured in Settings > Location Statuses).
Tags: Select one or more tags from the multi-select dropdown. You can add tag descriptions in the collapsible 'Tag(s) Description' section. Admins can create new tags directly from this form.
Click Create.
Non-admin users cannot change the initially selected programs on a site after creation. Only administrators can modify program assignments.
Editing a site
Navigate to the site from the program's site list or use the Jump to... search.
Click Edit on the site detail page.
Update any fields.
Click Save.
Program-specific fields
Different programs add additional fields to a site:

What happens after creating a site

FAQ
Q: Can a site belong to multiple programs?
A: Yes. You can assign a site to as many programs as needed. Each program adds its own features and fields to the site.
Q: Can I import sites in bulk?
A: Bulk site imports are handled by the SwiftComply team, not from the customer admin panel. Contact your SwiftComply representative if you need bulk imports.
Q: What's the maximum file upload size for site documents?
A: The maximum file size is 50 MB per file. Files can be organized into categories configured by your administrator.
Q: Can restricted users create sites?
A: By default, restricted users cannot create sites. An administrator can enable this through user permission settings.
