Set up sites
Last updated: July 2026
A site represents a physical location where your assets live — a head office, a warehouse, a plant, a project. Sites let you organize where things are, control who can access them, filter inspections and assets by location, and assign work to the right place.
Who can do this: owners and admins. Where: Administration → Users / Groups / Sites → Sites.
What sites are for
Sites help you:
- Organize locations — track where assets are located.
- Control access — restrict access to specific groups or users.
- Filter data — filter inspections and assets by site.
- Assign work — direct work to a specific location.
CMMS note: if your organization integrates with an external CMMS, sites are maintained there and synchronized into LambdaAssetCheck, so site management here is view-only.
Create a site
- Name - Code - Street address 1 / 2 (optional) - City and Country (optional) - Operation time zone
- Go to Administration → Users / Groups / Sites → Sites and select Create site.
- Enter the site's information:
- Choose whether to use Location hierarchy for this site. If you turn it on, set the maximum location levels, select Next: Locations, and name each level.
- Select Save site.

Location hierarchy is only available when it's enabled organization-wide — see Organization settings → Sites and locations. A defined hierarchy makes building inspection routes and rounds simpler.
Assign users to a site
- On the Sites page, select the Manage Users icon in the Actions column for a site.
- On the Users at [Site] page, select Add Users.
- Choose the users to add and select Add Users. They now appear in the list.
- Select Close.
Tip: assign sites to *groups* rather than to individuals wherever you can — it's far less to maintain as people move around.
Remove users from a site
- Select the Manage Users icon for the site.
- On the Users at [Site] page, select Remove [User] from site in the Actions column.
- Confirm with Remove, then Close.
Edit a site
Select Edit Site, change the fields as needed, and select Save changes.
Deactivate a site
Select Mark site as inactive and confirm. The status changes to Inactive, and the action button changes color — use it again to re-activate the site.
View and print the site QR code
Each site has a QR code. Select the View QR code icon in the Actions column to view and print it — handy for on-site incident reporting and scan-to-audit workflows.
