About Folders

This Help topic refers to the following editions:

Folders hold Child Folders or Documents. Folders can be copied or moved to the Recycle Bin or a Drawer in a Cabinet. Moving a Folder will move all the documents contained therein.

 

Tip:

DocuXplorer defaults to a limit when moving Folders with Documents. A Folder containing more than 254 documents cannot be moved unless the administrator increases the number of data locks allowed.

A user with permission can move more then 254 documents at a time but not a folder with more than 254 documents.

 

The Folder Contents Window displays a list view of the documents it contains. The Document List View is a key element in sorting and grouping documents for display as well as editing index information, sending documents via email and printing documents and reports from the DocuXplorer Desktop.

 

Folder Default Index Set

Users can filter the display of  a Folder’s contents based on an  Index Set. Click here to see more information on Document List View Display Filter.

 

Folders always have an Index Set associated as a default for display.

You can set all new Folders in a DocuXplorer object (Library, Cabinet or Drawer) to default to an  Index Set other than All Documents by setting the Default Index Set in the object's Properties/Folder item  available from the right-click menu of the object. Default Index Set is an inherited property and a new child object set for inheritance from a parent will automatically be set with the parent's default Index Set.

 

Tip:

It is recommended that Folders be defaulted to an Index Set and all documents stored in a folder be associated with the Folder's default Index Set.
