When you start typing in resource information, you will notice the Site field has a drop-down  list of options to describe the building where the resources are housed.  This list can be adjusted to suit your resource collection

Note:

• You have only 4 characters for the Site code
• You have 30 characters for the Description

• You can't delete or change a Site that is in use
• If you need to change an In Use Site then you need to add a new Site that suits your needs then use Utilities / Update / Catalogue / Update... to bulk change the old Site to the new Site on all exisitng records

(See Utilities / Update / Catalogue for a GMD example)

• Normally when you delete things you have to Pack the database to remove them.  If you delete a GMD you don't need to pack the database straight away because the Data Entry module won't display any deleted GMDs in the drop down list.  This means you can leave them floating around until you do a Backup at the end of the day
