The Sites table is the main part of the database setup for your campground. Here you define all of the rental "sites". A site can be a campsite, an RV lot, a cabin, a boat dock, a pavilion, a bicycle, or anything else you need to rent out by the day. The sites table is what shows up in the Rack View (usually the Y-axis of the Rack grid), as well as playing a large part in how other views are used. Every aspect of the sites is user-definable, including the name (actually 3 different designations), the type, the dates available for rental, and dozens of attributes that can be used to quickly determine whether a site fits a customer's needs.
There are some Pick Lists that should be defined before setting up the sites: the Site Classes, Site Types, Site Facing and Pad Types. (These should have been defined in the earlier steps.) These are helpful in categorizing the sites and simplifying the selection process when making a reservation, as well as filtering statistics when generating reports. Once these pick lists are set up, you can define the details of each site. The main pick lists are the Site Types and Site Classes, as these lists appear on many views and dialogs and makes it easy for you to limit the current view to just Full Hookup sites or Tent sites, for instance. The Pad Types and Site Facing lists are helpful when selecting site preferences for a reservation to narrow the search for a site.
