Site, in terms of Ginesys, is an entity which is the location of various operations of the business from purchasing to sale. Suppose a company manufactures shirts and directly sells it to the customers from its own stores as well as uses franchisees for selling its products. In such a case, it will first create a Organization Unit for manufacturing (by default one organization unit gets created on installation of Ginesys and need not create another for manufacturing). For sale it will create a managed consignment site and for franchisee, it may create a customer site.
Sites in Ginesys are of three types -
Organisation Site
Managed Site
Unmanaged Site
1. Organisation Site:
Organisation Owned Site are sites which belong to and are owned by the organisation directly and are obviously managed through Ginesys. It is generally corporate office or zonal office of an Organization. It is defined at the following software location - Admin > Organization > Hierarchy > Organization Site. It may be recognized by the fact, that Ginesys HO modules (Desktop and/or Web) are running on it and if the organization uses the Ginesys Finance module then it will be running at the organization site. Business to Business (B2B) transaction is possible in the Organization Site.
2. Managed Site:
Managed Site are the store or outlet of an organization where the Ginesys POS runs. In every Managed Site all the transactions and operations are controlled by Ginesys. Managed Sites (POS) may be both Organization Owned or Customer Owned.
Example: Single brand or multi brand outlet.
Managed sites are defined at Retail Management > Setup > Site and
3. Unmanaged Site:
Unmanaged Site are the store or outlet where the Ginesys POS does not run. Selling and buying processes are maintained by any other software but the transactions and behavior are controlled by the organization. Unmanaged Sites are by default Customer Owned.

Unmanaged sites are defined at Sales and Distribution > Setup > Unmanaged Sites.
Typically, the organization owned managed sites are managed in consignment mode.
While any customer owned site may be managed in consignment or outright mode.
