Your sites

Your sites is the list of jobs and shops a person covers. It decides which work reaches them in notifications and what the "Only my sites" filters show. It does not limit what they can see.

#Why this exists

A person covers some jobs and some shops, not the whole account. Gearflow needs to know which ones, so it can send them news about their work and not everyone else's. Your sites is where that list lives.

The person who most needs the list set correctly is a new hire on their first day, and that person is the least likely to set it. So an account administrator can set it for them.

#What you're looking at

Open Your sites from the user menu in the top bar, or from Your settings on the Profile screen. The page shows one list, All sites:

Each row is one site: its name, its location and its code, with a Job or Shop badge.
Tick the checkbox on a row to cover that site. Untick it to stop. Each tick saves at once.
The avatars at the right of a row show who else covers that site. Before you take a site on, check whether someone already has it.
Search for jobs and shops narrows the list by name.
The All / Jobs / Shops control shows one kind or both.
The Covered badge counts the sites you cover.

#What it drives

Covering a site changes three things, and nothing else:

Notifications. In Your notifications, each area (equipment, tickets, maintenance, mobilizations, parts) has a scope called Your sites, for example "Only tickets on sites you cover." With that scope on, you get notified about work on the sites you cover. If you cover no sites, that scope reaches nothing, and Your notifications says so. See Notifications.
"Only my sites" filters. The Only my sites filter on Requests, Tickets, Maintenance, Mobilizations and Parts shows work on the sites you cover.
Schedule. The jobs you cover are pinned to the top.

Covering a site does not change what you can see. The whole account stays visible.

#Set sites for someone else

An account administrator sees Editing coverage for above the search box, set to Yourself. Pick a person there to edit their sites in place. The ticks, the count and the avatars then show that person's coverage. Pick Yourself again to go back to your own.

#Tips

Set coverage on day one. A new person who covers no sites and uses the Your sites scope gets no notifications. An administrator can fix that in one minute from this page.
Check the avatars before you add a site. They show who already covers it, so you can see a gap or an overlap at a glance.
The page was called "Your jobs". Shops were added as a kind of site, so the page was renamed. Older notes and bookmarks that say "Your jobs" mean this page.
