Step-by-step guideWebOwner / Admin
Manage rooftops, locations, units, or teams
What you will accomplish
You will manage the top-level operating scopes used by your organization.
Who can do this
Owners and Admins can manage rooftops or locations. Billing-related payer controls may require additional authority.
Before you start
Birdseye uses a vertical-specific label such as rooftop, location, unit, or team. Confirm the official name and downstream user, goal, connection, and billing impact before changing one.
Add a scope
- Open Account menu → Config.
- Select Rooftops, Locations, Units, or Teams.
- Find the add control, such as Add rooftop or Add location.
- Enter the name.
- Select the add button, as shown.
- Confirm the new scope appears.
Change or deactivate a scope
- Find the scope.
- Open its available management control.
- Change the supported name, configuration, or payer information.
- Save and confirm the result.
- To deactivate, verify that users, feeds, goals, and billing no longer rely on it.
- Select the deactivate action and confirm.
Birdseye prevents deactivating the only active rooftop or location. Deactivation is different from changing the active scope in the header.
Expected result: the list shows the saved name, configuration, or inactive state, and affected scope selectors reflect active access.
Troubleshooting and recovery
- Deactivate is unavailable: at least one active rooftop or location must remain.
- A user cannot switch to the new scope: assign it under Config → Users.
- No data appears: connect or route records to the new scope.
