As well as being a hierarchical level of your directory, a site is expected to provide call logging data into the TIM Plus system. Normally, therefore, you configure a site for each PBX in your organisation.

If you have several sites, there is no guarantee that you use the same tariff provider on all. You may not even be costing in the same currency. TIM Plus picks any tariff or currency you choose.
