How do I remove or delete a site? – Measurabl

Sites that you’re tracking in Measurabl will be sold and will need to be removed from your portfolio overtime. There are also other reasons why you may need to remove a site from your portfolio in Measurabl - for example when a site gets pulled in from your ENERGY STAR account, but doesn’t belong to your portfolio.

This article shows why/how to delete a site from your portfolio as well as the differences between deleting a site vs marking it as inactive.

NOTE: Marking a property inactive or removing a site is a function only available to those with portfolio level permissions.

DELETED SITES vs. INACTIVE SITES:

There are a few reasons why you would want to mark your sites as 'Inactive' and have them remain accessible in Measurabl instead of permanently deleting them from your portfolio.

NOTE: Marking a site as 'Inactive' does NOT deactivate that site's Utility Sync accounts. Make sure to go into Measurabl and deactivate all of the utility accounts for the site before marking it as 'Inactive' - otherwise data will be continuously pulled.

Why you’d want to mark a site ‘Inactive’:

Site was sold and you will no longer be adding utility or non-utility data to it.
You don’t want to include this site’s data for reporting to GRESB or CDP, but it is still part of your portfolio.
The site came in through ENERGY STAR, but it is part of another portfolio.

What happens when a site is ‘Inactive’:

Site remains in Measurabl.
Site’s metrics are not included in ‘Portfolio Trends’ summary calculations.
The site’s data is kept for historical documentation in your portfolio.
You can always 'reactivate' the property.
You won't be billed for any inactive sites in your portfolio.

Why you’d want to delete a site:

Site is a duplicate of another site.
Site was sold more than 2 years ago, which is outside of the GRESB Reporting Period

What happens when a site is ‘Deleted’:

Site’s utility and non-utility data will be removed from your Measurabl portfolio.
Site’s data will not be included in ‘Portfolio Trends’ summary calculations.
The site and its data will NOT be available in your Measurabl portfolio as historical data.

HOW TO DELETE A PROPERTY:

NOTE: Deleting a site will remove the site’s floorspace usage (spaces), consumption data, and meter settings - You will no longer be able to view the site’s data in your portfolio.

Deleting a manual property...

From the Measurabl landing page, Click on the 'Sites' tab on the left menu bar.

A pop-up will ask you to confirm that you want to delete the site.

Deleting an ENERGY STAR property...

Sites that are linked to ENERGY STAR cannot be deleted in Measurabl - you will need to delete them in ENERGY STAR or transfer them to the new owner if the site was sold.

HOW TO MARK A PROPERTY INACTIVE:

From the Measurabl landing page, Click on the 'Sites' tab on the left menu bar.
Be sure that the 'Active' column is selected from the 'Columns' button.
